Do you have a favorite place to write? Think about it for a minute: Do you always sit at the same desk, writing in the same journal, surrounded by the same old things? I always do my writing for Scarred Bark on the same computer, at the same desk, in the same room - day after day. It's good to go somewhere else to write ... to try out a new location; it can jolt your creativity. Occasionally I'll write something when I'm on the road, but usually I'm just "there". Sitting in a familiar place surrounded by familiar things ... it helps to block out the noisy world. Solitude focuses one's attention; but it's also good to change things up now and then.
I'm currently away from my writing desk; but I have web access here, and I thought I'd spend a few minutes penning something pithy. Unfortunately, I don't have the address for Scarred Bark handy. I thought of going to Blogger.com and logging in, but then I decided it might be fun to try finding my blog with a search engine. I used Yahoo, but nothing came up ... at least not in the first 50 results - and really, who ever looks past the first twenty. Then I tried Google. Well ... what do you know, the #1 search result for "scarred bark" on Google is Scarred Bark. I'm actually #1. I'm not really sure what to make of that; I've never been #1 in a search engine before. It seems like I should be able to do something with that, to leverage it somehow; but - though I sit and think - I've got nothing.
