A Blade of Grass

I Thought I'd post something different than a bunch of Charts and something that's been on my mind for a while. As you may well think, this guy's "no writer", and you would be correct. I did not do well in the English and/or Literature classes in school. I've  always struggled with Writing, trying to convey what's in my thoughts to paper.

I remember one day when one of my daughters came home from High School while taking a class in Journalism. She was flustered with the fact her Teacher gave the students the task of writing an essay of 500- 1000 words on the subject" A Blade of Grass". I tried the best I could to help her, but I'm afraid I was limited in that Department. I told her to just start off slow on the facts and then build from there.
Needless to say "A Talent" was born. She had a gift to make any subject to 'sound good'.

There are a lot of such aspiring writers out in Web-land. Desiring to make a Living off selling essays of " A Blade of Grass", A plethora of  'Websites" wanting to make a living off selling products ,related or unrelated to the subject matter that the "Site" is related to. Watch out for the authors when it says "Reprints",they usually come from an "Bank" of writers wanting to sell their goods. Read the articles and if you like them jot down why and follow up on the writer. Were they "correct", did the "reasoning" pan out like they said it would or was there actually other reasons "They were correct" ?

I'm personally not going to try to relate a reason why something is happening that I personally do not have First hand experience in. I can't even begin to write about "A Blade Of Glass". I do not care about collecting E-Mail's for solicitations to sell a product. The most I can hope for in the 'writing' dept. is to aspire to be a
"Sequential" writer.

Many Thanks for taking the time to read.  Hillman.
