When we go looking for our characters, sometimes, they find us…Think back to the older West…before it was one…before it was Hollywood and the conservation states…The buildings had character, the people were characters, and the critters were eaten without the worry of the FDA…Plan your plot, choose your characters, seek your setting…Post it here, or share elsewhere, but write and enjoy…

“Poetry should… should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts, and appear almost a remembrance.”
John Keats
Sometimes, pictures are not enough to purge a story from the depths of your mind…you have to go beyond the pictures themselves and ask questions about the subjects or objects within the pictures. You may see some simple penguins…simple in a picture, but when you imagination takes over, they are waiting in line for a local night club…they are waiting to see the humans…Or, perhaps, they are just waiting for Godot…you decide…Post it here, or share elsewhere, but write and enjoy…
