now that I know the code

After numerous attempts I have discovered how to access my own blog! A minor miracle for me. But I think it opens up another conversation and a question I'd like to address: are we spending so much time doing virtual updates, keeping the masses appraised of our every thought synapse and physical movement that we are suppressing and stifling the creative impetuous that leads us to walk, talk face to face, indeed create?

I have been advised to get my new novel out to book bloggers and I would gladly do so as I believe the world vitural has a voracious appetite for on-line reading, Problem is I'm not sure how, and given my comments above, I'm not sure if that is a healthy alternative. I do not see the mainstream press (which, I must admit, I have been a part of for a good two decades) taking up the mantle of new work, original ideas, Canadian invention.

This is a question I will sit with, contemplate, until there is a call to action. Meanwhile, comment if you care to. I am all (virtual) ears,
