So what?
Many years ago, I went through a period when I wrote a lot. Primarily letters to friends and family. Many of these letters were typed on my computer's word processing program and I have been very fortunate, three computers later, to still retain a file of missives. Letter writing was my way of absorbing the unfolding events in my life.
Lately inspired by Amy Tan's The Opposite of Fate, I have decided to resurrect my desire to tell stories by, well, telling stories.
As for the blog name, I love to read and like cats. But I am not spiteful.
