Starting to write again daily has been such a good thing that has reentered my life recently. For many, many years I have and still do have some aspirations of journalism as one of the many facets of my career as an artist and thinker. I’ve been thinking a lot about the other types of writing that I want to include here and on my micro blog too. I imagine that this blog in particular will continue on as it has for the last several weeks, a mixture of long form and short form things many of which are prose and are my own thoughts in opinions. Of course, I have also given lots of thought into the ideas of writing narrative fiction, poetry and things along those lines.

One of the things that I love most about music is that I get to do it with people. There’s this connection and community that I find in music that I have yet to connect with as deeply in other art forms. I do though think that it is possible to have that same feeling through writing. Baronfig, my absolute favorite notebook company launched a project called The Global Haiku Project. It’s such a cool idea I think and a great way for people to connect with each other through writing.
