theprose, theprose

This site is creative sustenance. It's like the last bit of buttered popcorn at the bottom of the tub, when all life seems to be handing out are charred, unpopped kernels and used Justin Bieber CDs. It's a way to see and be seen. It's as if Casey Kasem were still alive... but this Top {insert number} is for interesting, up-and-coming writers, and I get to pick my own music.

Active participation in this site is like cultivating the soil of the Brazilian Pampas. It's a fertile place to learn and grow. It's like a hillock in a meadow--conspicuous, but in a good way. Sometimes, I even get bits of feedback, even if I'd rather just get that little heart. (Egad! Honesty?) It's encouragement, entertainment, engagement, and advertisement all rolled into one like a four-cheese quesadilla.

I for one am glad to be here.
