Blogging is something I have not done before.
I read blogs. I like blogs. I just don't write blogs.
I'm not sure how successful I will be at this new venture......I have never had the patience for writing, or journal keeping.....but we will give it a whirl and see how it all comes out.
Recently (and by recently I mean the last few months) I have been sending a friend of mine a weekly recap via email. I always title it "The Week in Review" and if he is lucky - images sometimes accompany the email.
The week in review has become an interesting look back for me. Sometimes I take notes thru the week, jotting them down on tidbits of paper....other times, I ready myself at the keyboard and just let the recollections fly off my fingertips.
It occured to me, that since I take the time to read other blogs, why not take a few moments to jot down my daily happenings? It certainly should make it easier to write "The Week in Reveiw" each week.....and perhaps this will replace it!
So where to begin?
I am a huge fan of the end of Bravo's "Inside the Actor's Studio"
The Pivot Questions are my favorite.
So I am going to answer them for you......and maybe if I am lucky some of you will answer them back!
