Thank you, Gowpen.

I am really trying to push the writing envelope lately, both for personal growth and potential publication.  The ultimate goal for my life is to sail full time and writing, in many ways, compliments that very well.  It helps for battling solitude and consumes time while drifting in the apparent timeless found between land.  Hopefully 'maybe' one day it could even help me afford that 'ultimate vessel'.

(Hmmmm, 'launching from a sailboat while drifting under the aurora borealis' just fell into my bucket-list, lol.)

Putting yourself out there, even from behind a mask, can create apprehension.  You tell yourself, "Frak the critics" but that only applies to negative critiques, it seems, as compliments carry a much better weight which I can't help but to appreciate.

So, thanks for telling me I write good, yous guys!
