There's a good reason for the layoff, honestly.

New computer with trial software, vast travels, (lazy Scott who missed the renewal deadline), purchase of new software, shipment of new software around the world, installation of new software....

So, to begin again. Having been properly scolded for the layoff (you know who you are), it begins anew....

It starts here.

Lacking the motivation to seek yet more representation, lacking the conviction in myself to begin another tale, lacking the motivation to do something more proactive and productive, and lacking any other original thoughts, I thought I'd start this little gig to at least get the story Somewhere.

Story? A Promise In Sorrow. Begun in 2001, finished three years later. My first complete attempt at a manuscript. Is it good? Frankly, I don't know. But, perhaps by placing it here rather than simply on a magnetic portion of my hard-drive, I can finish its gestation and move on to other projects.

So, that's the objective. Read it in pieces as I post. Feel free to shred it. They're only words, and when we start fearing words then we have truly surrendered to the darkness.

Allsalami-ilike'em,
Scott
