Hi there! I don’t have much to say today but I’d appreciate it if you keep on reading, anyway. Who knows where this is going to lead? Could be fun! I’ve set myself a quota, just for me, and I’m going to have to keep doing this or I’ll be messing up my goals for the day. Or the week. Or the hour. Who wants that!

So that’s why I’m writing this. To stay on schedule. Because it’s a thing now. There’s an entire movement out there based on, “Write it and they will come”. So here goes. I’m writing. Right here.

I love ellipses. I think I’ve written about them before but I can’t stop to find it now. I’ll have to get back to you.

(And parentheses. Obviously.)
