Just Write


Ugh! I haven't been able to write anything for over a week. I've had so many stops and starts. Nothing rings true. Nothing I start to write about excites me.

Taking the advice of my undergrad American Literature professor, I'm going to kick myself in the pants and force myself to write. He advised us to write every day. About anything. About everything. So that is what I'm going to do.

It's not like there's suddenly nothing to write about. There are so many things I could be talking about on TheKansasCityPost.com. The fact that the mayor seems to be doing an end-run around the Citizens Task Force on Light Rail and promoting his own "regional" plan, whatever that is. I could write about ticket sales at the Sprint Center (yeah I know, who cares?). The irony of attending our last Light Rail Task Force meeting and they had free parking validation but no transfer passes for those of us that actually took the bus?

So today I write. I write to purge. I write to hopefully prime the pump and get some ideas flowing. Mostly I write because I miss it.

More later.

That is all. As you were.

Ha on the Parking validation.

I had one of those yesterday. I serve on the Big 12 Host committee for the city and they are wanting to do a training session on all the new things downtown so we all will be better "tour guides" for the out-of-towners and know how the town has changed in the past 3 years since the Big 12 has been here. So where do they want to meet to discuss all the changes downtown? Johnson County Community College. Irony.

Brent,

That's exactly the kind of thing that drives me nuts! Someone should have raised their hand and asked if there had been any meeting space added to downtown in the last three years.

I know how it is Mark. However, I think with that one little tid-bit about the Mayor you maybe gave some of the most relevant information on local blogs today. Wish I would have seen that earlier.

Keep the faith!!! Keep up the great work.

Thanks for the words of encouragement Mister Readers' Choice!

I knocked a single over at the Post today. Hopefully my slump is over.
