ex·or·di·um
1. the beginning of anything.
2. the introductory part of an oration, treatise, etc.

To begin; I do not write enough. So much goes unrecorded, so many conversations and events that I shouldn't have forgotten but I have. The first time I got drunk. The date I watched Star Wars. The vestige of dream that clung to me yesterday morning, using me in a desperate attempt at escape; I was cruel to it and forced it back. What she said to me that night, out on the ice as we watched a fox run by. Her words were beautiful as she was, and slipped away just the same. These are things I should have written down. So now I make a resolution.

Kevin Spenst wrote a short story a day for a thousand days. I thank him for inspiration. As an aspiring writer, I intend to describe some piece of fiction or fact every day for as long as I am capable. For practice, yes, but to keep my quarry close at hand. To pull my arms to my sides and ensure that writing does not fall faster than I. Though to reach for it would increase resistance, relax my motion, and I could watch it fall only farther away from me; as long as my eye is on it and I feel it close to me, I will wax content.

If I go here a day without posting, leave it to imagination what I have written somewhere else.
