Been a while...

Well...geez-ow...I haven't posted in a while I guess. Well...I did make one post, but I deleted it because it wasn't productive. I've been busy moving and getting into the moving mindset so I had to temporarily put the book on the back burner until April.
Once I'm all moved in, though, which will be on Saturday, I'm guessing I'll have much more time to dedicate to the book. Heck! I still have to finish chapter 4. I won't have cable hooked up in the new house for a few days, though, so there won't be that distraction so...who knows...maybe I'll use that time to write. I WILL use that time to write. It's hard to get back into the writing mode after taking a break, but, hey, this story is The Perfect Star after all, so I'm sure I'll find the proper inspiration. I'll also have a computer at the new place so I'll be plenty inspired to do more of these posts and to effectively get my web site out there. I know there's an audience for my cock-eyed idealism...I just have to take the time to find it.
So far the book has been met with a somewhat less than enthusiastic response by my friends...not their cup of tea, I guess...but hey...that's okay. To each their own...right? I'm not going to shove this down anyone's throat. But hey...I actually did get an e-mail from a stranger the other day who visited my web sites and he was very encouraging. He said the story inspired him. Wow! Imagine that? Somebody inspired! By me. The ole ego has gotta love that! It's so great to finally get some encouraging words from somebody who actually took the time to read my stuff. It's nice to know now that there are people out there who feel the way idea about the ideas expressed.
I'll tell you this much, though...I dream of the day that I find that one person who actually is totally into the book and all the ideas expressed within...somebody who actually gets me and understands...well...everything. On the day when I meet this person, I'll know it instantly and I'll know that this is the person that I must spend the rest of my life with. Yes, dear readers, young Mark is finally ready to re-open himself to the concept of being in love...Gawrd! Is that even possible anymore?
I like to think so.
What can I say?
I'm an idealist.
