Hi Marsha and John

I generally write with my collection of I-Tunes on repeat playing in
the background. I am pretty much addicted to writing at least a
thousand words a day... every day... been doing so for years now. I
don't do journals though. I stick to fiction, short stories as a rule
though a few of them are growing into novels as the years go by. I
agree there is a meditative aspect to my writing, especially when the
words are really flowing and time stands still.

Dan

PS - Say hey to Lu for me!
