Writing Can Be Addictive
Addiction is a long-term health issue. It involves a strong urge to use a substance or act in a way that causes harm. This can lead to physical, mental, or social problems. It shows a weak ability to control impulses and a changed reward system in the brain.

Candide, Can Didn't
There have been times in my life when I have pondered which book or author has left the biggest impression on me. I have often been without an answer until I realized it came from a book, or rather a novella, I read in my junior high years. No, it wasn’t for a book report. I picked it up at a sale one day, purchased it, and read it in a day.

Catharsis
Many readers and writers enjoy horror as a cathartic experience. My guess is that they’ve had less genuine horror in their lives than I have. Fear is not my friend, and I will not recreationally seek it. Does this mean catharsis is absent from my experience? Absolutely not—it just means that I find catharsis elsewhere.

A Weird/Normal Dream
I dreamt I was at a very big store, hanging out with Catherine, my former coworker, and Mary, our former boss. We end up sitting at a super long table in the employee basement and reconnecting. I think at one point how I’m glad I can be so far from them, and that Catherine should be farther away from Mary.

Pleasant Memories
Summer. Gosh, it’s hot. Summers were relatively short in the mountains of Passaic County in New Jersey. We had all the seasons, unlike some of the southern states. Each had its own dramatic flair. Summer was always one of my sister’s and my favorites. It’s when we get to spend the most time outdoors and have the most daylight to be outside as long as possible.

It's A Challenge
Introduction My first challenge today is to get this article published before I have to run off to York. Yesterday was slightly traumatic having to deal with disappearing parcels and potential thefts, but they are now all in hand and dealt with but on to the subject of this thing.
