Yesterday I published a post in my blog, LIFE-BUILT POEMS: Living Out Loud, and I have been dancing around like a madwoman, celebrating the event ever since.

For me, the post is a foundational piece and it represents a paradigm-shift.

It is, I am hoping, the first movement in setting my stance as one who is developing a synergy between the writings I have been doing and will continue to do in my MEDIUM space and the ones I am going to be producing in this Wealthy Affiliates universe.

It's been more than two months since I've written a post for the blog. My muse for that one was...ummm...busy.

This didn't stop me from writing other things. On the MEDIUM thing I've published 103 stories -- one every weekday in the past two months or so. I've got another eight completed drafts waiting in the queue.

The writer isn't dead. The writer has been wrestling with a really recalcitrant (and probably frustrated) muse is all!

You have to understand the backstory, I guess. The post, titled "Time As a Shaping Tool (An Overview)," is probably the longest I've ever done on the blog and is, I hope, one of a series of foundational pieces about my current explorations of life as a Shaper.

I do plan to do more like it. I hope to take it further.

I started working on the post back in July of last year, I think. For the past seven months and more that I've been incubating the post, I have been tracking down what I call "the Chaos-Beast," a wild and woolly bit of my own subconscious mind that is better at hiding than the Sasquatch.

As a poet, I consider the Chaos-Beast an essential element in Making stuff with meaning and mana. It's never going to be tamed. I'm not aiming to tame it. What for?

The Chaos-Beast is the wellspring of my own creativity. Me, I'm just trying to catch a good ride.

This one has been a beaut!

Hope you guys are having fun. Be well!
