Do not wait to propose. Do not wait to have children. Marriage and fatherhood are the adventures that impelled my writing, which is after all its own exploration.

[Mark Ching @deareborne]

If writing is not your calling, it will become clear. Many times I wondered myself. But I always had just enough validation to continue.

[Mark Ching @deareborne]

I have written nonstop for 20+ years. I should have written more before then. Please don't wait to start if you think you have the knack. Most of us are not Mozarts—we require a lot of practice and honing our craft. There's a lot of crumpled paper in my trash.

St. Stephen's Day was Dec. 16. Happy St. Stephen's Day, everyone! If you're wondering how our Christmas went, I wrote this little narrative, which includes a small meditation on Good King Wenceslas. Read here, but do not weep, for we are well-blessed. https://t.co/sBxibo2OP7

You can't spell laboratory without Labor and Tory. You're welcome.

Boards don't hit back. Neither do STRAW MEN. Good thing for most of you. https://t.co/50j2DaZgXA

Why Black and not black? And what if you can't keep up with constantly changing racial designators? Help is here. https://t.co/50j2DbgSma

Forgot to post last month's Lexicide article. Did you know the Chinese word for CRISIS = DANGER + OPPORTUNITY? I didn't. Because it doesn't. https://t.co/50j2DbgSma
