MWL: The Man Who Read To Me

I was listening to the “Lord of the Rings” soundtrack tonight, and it reminded me of something I wrote on Christmas day a few months ago. It’s just a short reflection entitled, “To Michael W. Locke: The Man Who Read To Me.” After reading over it again, I decided I liked it enough to post it in the “What I’m Writing” section of my blog over there in the left side bar and down a bit. For those of you who don’t know me that well, I’m an English teacher by vocation, but I also aspire someday to be a professional writer. From time to time, I’ll post something I’ve written online–the other two pieces posted there are both science fiction (my favorite genre); one is a short story and the other consists of the first two-and-a-half chapters of a novel I’ve been slowly working on for some time now. With any luck, over spring break I’ll post another short story I’ve been tossing around in my mind. Anyhow, just thought I’d share..
