Too Many Me's
I'm not used to this anonymous thing.
I've got a "real" blog out there with my "real name." I've got "real" friends online (and even a few in real life...imagine that!).
Yet there's something in me that says...keep quiet. You're on the path toward publication. The ups and downs of it all don't need to be broadcast with your real name attached.
So I'm finding that I can be "real" without revealing myself.
I'm certainly meeting folks -- fellow writers -- whom I like and really care about. Really want to see them succeed.
You know?
You may be one of them.
I do care. I want to be part of this online-writer-connectedness. And in a way, I am.
There just isn't a name attached.
At least, not now.
Just a lovely photo of fruit pizza.
And elsewhere....I'm someone else. Different name, different avatar.
Still me.
