Writers
This carefully maintained dock holds a growing collection of the written word. Here, you’ll find thought provoking articles, unique stories, private letters, personal notes, deep musings, and occasionally, even poetry. Much of the content here has never been shared publicly. For whatever reason, some pieces were tucked away by the writer for years. Now, it’s all available for you.
Distractions

When it came time for the spring plowing, I often walked behind my grandpa as he held the reins of the team of horses that were hitched to a four-bottom plow.

Everyone has setbacks. Ever wonder how successful people, such as Jimmy Dean, Bob Hope, or Joan Rivers overcame theirs. So did I. When I was still struggling, my passion was to know how other people overcame rejection and defeat. To be successful in life you must have a certain understanding of things such as: how to deal with criticism, how to overcome challenges, how to balance your life, and even how to deal with success. To understand these things you need to talk to those who have been through it before, who have suffered, persisted, and already succeeded.
