About Me
I’ve never been good at answering the tough questions, like, “What’ve you been up to lately?” Umm… ”Nothing.” While that isn’t quite true, my mind nevertheless goes completely blank.
And heaven forbid someone says, “Tell me about yourself.” For one thing, I always feel like I’m supposed to have a single answer, a kind of life summation sentence. And I just can’t bring myself to say, “Well, I love photography, I’m a blogger writer, a podcaster, and I’d really like to finally start that book that’s been in my head for ten years.” It feels like I’m presenting an image of a self that only exists in my own mind – which is stupid, because all of those things are true. Perhaps it’s just because I’m afraid that my work can’t stand up to the scrutiny, that someone will look at my photos or read my writing or listen to my podcast and say, “That girl sure is kidding herself”.
But I hope you don’t think so.

About Me, The Director’s Cut – the really long version (because this is my blog, so I can)
.
I nominated you for the Versatile Blogger award because I enjoy and admire your blog. There are some rules that go with it. I broke one of them, but I don’t think anyone will notice. If you have done this before or it’s not something you really want to do, file it away. I understand.
Here are the rules:
1. Thank the award-giver and link back to them in your post.
2. 2. Share 7 things about yourself.
3. 3. Pass this award along to 15 recently discovered blogs you enjoy reading.
4. 4. Contact your chosen bloggers to let them know about the award.
Thank you for all your great posts.
Thank you so much! I just read your post, and I’m honored you chose me.
My pleasure!
OK, I shall follow you…despite the Muppet/Electric Company attempted segregation….
“Contact….is the answer….is the reason….that everything happens….” (OK, working at a PBS station didn’t hurt, but 3-2-1 was long gone by then, so I’ll chalk it up to rabid fandom and some well-placed YouTube videos)
Looking forward to playing in the sandbox!
Thank you! But I was the greedy one – I wanted them both! Thanks for the Contact words, too. I remembered “that everything happens”, but I could not remember the middle part for the life of me.
Thanks for subscribing; I hope I don’t disappoint
