First Post on my Second First Blog
12May2011
Welcome.
If you've noticed that the old first blog on my earlier website seems to have disappeared, it's because I had to take down the entire site after discovering that, being designed on a Mac, it didn't always load properly in Internet Explorer. It seemed none of the page links worked, and some of the graphics were distorted. Everything, however, functioned just fine in Safari, Firefox, Chrome, SeaMonkey, and Opera. I leave you to draw your own conclusions. Anyway, I've spent the last weeks building this new site, still in a Mac program, but I believe the problems have been solved.
This blog is called Luminations. It conveys what I intend to share on these pages — the illuminating ruminations I find meandering through my mind, the synchronicities and interconnections I constantly observe, the ah hahs that often lead me to a larger understanding and perspective.
Sometimes these "luminations" come through things I feel passionate about — art, literature, music, dance, film, theater, and other forms of creative expression that uplift the human spirit. You might find me blogging about Twyla Tharp’s ballet Push Comes to Shove, or a certain Chopin nocturne that moves me deeply, or why I've watched Shakespeare in Love twelve times.
I might also write about my beautiful cat Michou (pronounced Mee-shoo), my love of and frustration with learning the French language, or Café Azalea's (you have to be in Asheville, NC) sublime flourless chocolate torte.
And being a writer — mostly poetry and fiction, although I'm currently working on a memoir — I'll of course blog about writing…and not writing.
I hope you will visit again. I look forward to connecting with you. Please click on the Home, Writing and Poetry pages on this site and take a look at some of my published work, especially my novel, A Love Apart. Thanks for stopping by.
À bientôt….
