Well, nothing creative.  I have continually felt a hunger to express myself in a creative way, however struggled to find that outlet.  I have dabbled in various art forms, but nothing felt right.  Fairly recently, thoughts started pouring through me. It was strange, in fact.  I started thinking that writing them down was a good idea.  So, here I am! I'll admit that this site intimidates me a great deal and I am almost scared to post.  I hope, as time goes on, that will pass and I can glean some insight on ways I can create meaningful works.  Ones that hopefully aren't complete trash.  ... more babymoon Beneath the baby moon: the ramblings of Janelle Thu, 07 Jun 2007 02:32:58 GMT /section-358-beneath-the-baby-moon-the-ramblings-of-janelle#comments 6 https://dev.shakespearesmonkeys.com/comments/post.php/article/4646 https://dev.shakespearesmonkeys.com/comments/feed.php/article/4646 https://dev.shakespearesmonkeys.com/links/trackback.php?anchor=article%3A4646
