Portfolio Content
This is the home of all the content that is designed to show-off some of the writing abilities of yours truly. Initially, the thought of ”showing off” felt weird. Instead, having bonus material made more sense. The potential for creativity is much higher when the attention is on adding value instead of showing off.
Some of the content stands alone beautifully. Others work in concert with existing blog posts. The whole point of the portfolio is to have a collection of things that new comers can see and get a feel for what is happening in the blog itself.
There are currently three types of portfolio projects. The Photographic Tints, the Behind the Scenes, and the Writing Samples. Each have their own sub-sections to explore.
All content on this blog, hopefully, will get shared by you with others. Feel free to comment on what you see. The best compliment you can give… is to share what moves you with someone one else. Thank you for visiting. Thank you for sharing.

Every now and again, the attempt at creating a bit of writing happens.

if you’re worried about email spam… I’ve not added email to the blog because I don’t have time currently to write emails to send every day to tease out stories… nor plan to do so any time real soon… when email capabilities will be added… it will be to send a newsletter out that readers actually want to read… when I have time to create such a newsletter. So, feel free to sign up… you’ll only get a notice of a new blog post… in case I don’t mention it on social media… that happens sometimes
