With my manuscripts, I know the first draft scenes that are strong and the ones will need a whack of revision. It's similar with the blog. Sometimes I post and I know the writing is flat; it's simply information sharing and a warm-up for or distraction from my regular writing. Other times, I'm smiling as I press the "Publish" button, looking forward to your comments and the few others that appear on the blog as well as the tweets that arise from it.<br /><br />I happen to like humor. I rely on it so much to cope with and amuse myself over life. I feel like I've lost much of the funny, but if I keep on writing, the hope is it will find its way back.<br /><br />You are a strong writer, Rick! It's clean, persuasive, often message-driven. This piece pops because of the playfulness. It reveals the kind of interplay that I long for. I am so glad you wrote it and so privileged to read it!Aging Gaylyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09886888900957765438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6834596026525717264.post-51476289799128760272014-08-22T22:22:29.330-07:002014-08-22T22:22:29.330-07:00Thanks for your kind words, RG. You know how, whe...Thanks for your kind words, RG. You know how, when you finish writing a post, you know you have something? Well, I knew that with this one. I started writing it in my head this morning, while I was still in bed at 6:15, and, before I knew it, I was up in front of my computer. Who could sleep any longer?<br /><br />I really wanted the playfulness between Chris and me to come out. I'm glad it did. Honestly, as I wrote this, I thought of you, and how much humor you inject into your writing. You might say I was inspired by you and your posts, that have given me more than a few laughs over the years.<br /><br />And about spending $300 in a BH salon? Dude, your hair is beautiful. You have a hell of a lot more of it to work with than Chris does. Besides, how many of us can say, whether it's overpriced or not, that we had the experience of going to a BH salon? It was a treat, something you wouldn't do all the time. But once in a while? Why not? <br /><br />By the way, you have no idea how much it means to me that you said this was a great piece. I admire your writing immensely, so I'm touched by your compliment. If I'm honest with myself, and you, I'd have to say I've been trying to impress you for a very long time. Looks like I might have finally done it.<br /><br />Thank you.<br />Rick Modienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02157314737543591048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6834596026525717264.post-54559895254716946492014-08-22T20:59:26.252-07:002014-08-22T20:59:26.252-07:00Great piece, Rick!

And to think I blew $300 in a Beverly Hills salon last summer!Aging Gaylyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09886888900957765438noreply@blogger.com
