1. There is enough ugliness and negativity in the world. This will be a blog dedicated
to seeking, finding and celebrating what is good.
2. No whining. (See rule #1)
3. No depressive rants allowed. ("I'm fat" "I'm sick of my waitressing job." "No one out there in the literary world appreciates my incredible talent." "Nobody loves me." "Lots of people love me but not enough...etc.") Yeah, that's the stuff, and obviously, I'm incredibly good at producing it. But I won't. Not here. (See Rule #1)
4. Blog with joy, courage and abandon and then dammit, go out and try to live the same way. (See rule #1)
5. Okay,I lied; there really is only one rule.
The other day I went to a literary website named Dead Drunk Dublin or Drunk Dead Dublin, or some variation thereof. Anyway, the site featured a quote by Andre Gide:
"Any thought that is not filled with love is unholy." Consider that the Rule of the Blog.
