What Am I Doing Here?

Hello everyone! Welcome to my new blog, A Writer's Cache. If you've never heard the word "cache" before, I'll spare you a headache and explain. A cache is a place to hide your treasure. I'm hoping that's what you'll find here, because I'll be "hiding" something very important to me.

Writing is my passion. Everything you'll read here is my words, direct from my head to my fingertips.  Most of what you'll find on here is commentary and writing advice, with short, original examples relating to the topic discussed. It will either be poetry or short fiction. But you'll also find commentaries on the struggles or triumphs of being a writer, including constructive ranting about my personal struggles as I strive toward my goal of becoming a published author. You'll also find some stand-alone pieces that I just wanted to share.

My goal in starting this blog is to get my work out there and to get some feedback, in addition to sharing what works for me in the hope that I can help someone else. Tell me what you like and dislike about anything you find on this blog. I'm hoping my writing here will catch someone's attention and I will have the privilege of helping others learn to love reading and writing as much as I do (and maybe learn something from you all along the way).

I  want to make this interesting for you. I want to get to know my audience. If you have something to say, say it! Comments on my writing style, a request for a certain type of advice, an example of a specific writing principle, whatever. This blog is yours as much as it is mine!

Thank you all for beginning this new journey with me. I'm excited for it, and I hope you are, too!
