Hello I’m Jim
This is my first article in my new home ILLUMINATION. In reading stories from IllUMINATION I find a lot of eclectic writers. I write many different types of stories and until now, I have never found a publication that welcomes all of my different styles and subjects.
Before I get on with answering the question Who am I Dr Mehmet Yildiz asked us to tag a few writers who follow us. Here are stories from 3 randomly selected people who are following me
The best response to the question who am I is the poem
I’m Nobody! Who are your? by Emily Dickinson.
I’m Nobody! Who are you? Are you — Nobody — too? Then there’s a pair of us! Don’t tell! they’d advertise — you know!
How dreary — to be — Somebody! How public — like a Frog – To tell one’s name — the livelong June – To an admiring Bog!
I thought about just quoting the poem and leaving it at that.
Then I decided that contrary to the spirit of the poem I could introduce my self by sharing some of my writing.
Here’s another attempt at defining who I am
I try to love everybody however I am not perfect and that can sometimes to easier said than done.
Sometimes I write technical articles. I enjoy programing with Python.
We have a cat that loves knocking stuff off the kitchen table
For a while I lived in a small Alberta town that had a gun culture that rivaled that of some parts of the US.
I write short 50 word fiction.
Sometimes I write Haiku or Tanakas
I love word play and puns.
