Over Here by Dick R.

Psst--Psst--Over here, lurking in the shadows. Who am I? I think I am a writer, but don't tell anyone.

I love to watch my thoughts, my emotions, my fears, my dreams, even my alter egos suddenly appear in printed form--it's me saying lok at me, listen to me.

I have something important to say! It’s such a relief to let it all out even though it does expose the real me to everyone. In a form that is indelible and from which it is impossible to escape responsibility, once I’ve cast those thoughts into the public arena.

Writing is the rewarding part: it heals the soul; stimulates the cerebral mass; gives form to all my cherished thoughts kept secret from the world, because of my fear of what THEY will think. Not now, the words flow freely as I interpret life's moments through my eyes. It's my occasion to hog the stage and command attention for my creative endeavors.

Now the most difficult part! Exposing my thoughts to others. The mountainous weight of REJECTION.... My heart beat quickens, creative fingers now tremble slightly as I try to maintain calm in face of the sometimes overwhelming fear. Should I take the chance? What if they don't like it. Here it is -- do with me what you want, because I know I have made a noble effort to share my thoughts with you. God and I know it’s not perfect, but if it makes you think seriously, smile a little, re - live an important experience in your life, or maybe even creates a rewarding moment in your life, then I can be satisfied.

I AM A WRITER AND I WANT EVERYONE TO KNOW!

Crits and tones will break my prose, but names -- may sometimes hurt me.
