about

I’ve been scribbling since I was a child. Whether drawings or letters, my hand has always loved the feel of a pencil. Sadly, I’ve always held the pencil too tightly to draw beautiful pictures or whimsical cartoons; I feel better in front of a drafting board.

My writing takes many forms, both informal and formal. I have always preferred starting my writing with pencil in hand rather than on a screen. But it’s the 21st century and everything changes.

Today, I rarely have the opportunity to scribble, but feel I need a space in which to do it. scribblings is that venue. Enjoy.
