Lectoris Cave

Lectoris Cave is Latin for "reader's beware" and yes I had to look that one up. I write many blogs. Most of them I try to make funny because I love to make people laugh (I have found out if is much harder to do with the written word), and my sports blogs are more serious but I am working on making them better and more analytical rather than just a regurgitation of last night's action. I am working on developing a writing style and cultivating an audience. Cultivating an audience has been a very long and slow process.

Not everyone is going to like everything I write. I am open to constructive criticism but I guess it is up to me to decide what is constructive and what is not and what is downright mean and what is not. Some bloggers are successful but I am not. I have always taken the approach that I write for myself because I enjoy doing it. That being said, I do get a charge out of people reading my blogs and any comments they may happen to make. Just like a baseball player, I check my stats everyday. I am about to take it national and we'll see how I do.

I am definitely not in it for the money because I really haven't made a penny yet. I have sat down and written a children's book. I was shocked because it actually has potential. I even have an illustrator lined up. I am applying for a copyright now. Who would have thought that?
