NOTHING NEW TODAY

I have nothing to post today. I'm trying to get more creative with this site. I have been pretty busy this past month. I'm looking for poetry, essays, commentaries, places to go and other things. There will still be 'food for thought' and 'today's word'. I will be adding some other things too. I'm still very positive about this blog because I believe there is an interest in literature and the written word. Keep looking for updates.
