Last year on September 16th I wrote my first blog. Since that time i've posted nearly ninety different columns.  Believe me no one is more surprised about that than I am. 
 
For those of you who don't know, I started my broadcast career as a copywriter....being "promoted"from full time receptionist to part time copywriter and part time receptionist at WMAN Radio in the 70's.   Like so many jobs in small market radio, someone had to fill the opening and I was chosen, not for my talent, but for my willingness to do anything assigned to me.   I picked it up as I went and found I really enjoyed it.  It is a love that has lasted all my life, and as my career advanced and my  responsibilities changed I grew to write less and less.  That's called growing up...I think.
 
Now I'm retired from radio and enjoying my current incarnation as Editor to Heart of Ohio Magazine.  This has been a challenge and an honor; every time we come up with a story that hits home with our readers I'm on cloud nine. 
 
You might think turning out stories for six magazines a year would be enough....add to that the blog postings.  But like the TV commercials say, "But Wait...There's More!"  No, I can't give you "two for one" pricing or knock off a payment if you buy now.....but I am going to post a story I worked on last winter.  It seems that once you turn on the "writing tap" you can't stop the flow. 
 
I hope STALK holds your interest as long as it did mine to write it.  Beginning tomorrow the thirty chapters of the story will be posted in two chapter increments each Sunday.   It's an experiment that I hope you enjoy. 
 
LIFE IS GOOD
