About Me"My search for truth recently led me into an inescapable chasm of darkness, chaos and grief. It turns out I had a paper bag stuck on my head." ~ Henri, le Chat Noir.
--- I am one of those wandering minds, subject to the ebb and flow of the universe; compelled by forces beyond my comprehension. Regarding READ REQUESTS... I took a short hiatus from WritersCafe because I was getting too wrapped up in the reading, the writing and the authorial personalities that come with the territory. Writers are a strange lot in case you haven't noticed. We can be eccentric, sweet, horrible, overly dramatic to a fault, fawning, rude, belligerent, bellicose, bombastic, trite, trivial, superfluous, seasonal, smarmy (yes, love that word) and the list is really, truly endless. But, back to my current READ REQUEST strategy. Going forward, I would like to thank everyone for all the lovely read requests, however, I've only got so much time and I need to ease up a bit because: a.) some of you SPAM every "friend" you have with countless read requests. b.) There's only so much spare time in the day and I'm not getting PAID to be here and I have another life outside of WritersCafe. c.) While I treasure you all, dearly, some of you write stuff that is just so well-written but incomprehensible or so poorly written or disgusting or just not-my-cup-of-tea that it would be disingenuous to try to review and say anything meaningful... and all of us deserve something meaningful in a review - we all do. (Although a little encouragement and/or silliness can be tremendously uplifting - consider this a vote for encouragement and/or silliness - when apropos). Well, that's pretty much it. By the way, I'm not going to DELETE your read requests because I intend to reserve the right to review them at random, at my leisure, and if/when I feel I have something to contribute that you might find useful or uplifting or etc.. However, that means that you may get some review commentary from me for something that you may have posted ages ago... or nothing at all. C'est la vie.
