Oh, I can come up with lots of ‘reason’ why I can’t sit down and write, but posting this series has been a good refresher course for me. Look out book 7… I’m coming to get you!

Really interesting, Bruce. He certainly was one-of-a-kind :)

It’s one thing to set ourselves on fire, totally another when we have fireman/woman friends and family members who throw water on us, attempting to put the fire out.
I hear what you are saying and I’m smiling at the irony of it all.

I'd like to say I'm not really a procrastinator when it comes to my writing, it's just that "regular" life gets in the way. Okay, so maybe I get in the way just a bit with my self doubt and fear.

Leonardo da Vinci best known for his Mona Lisa and The Last Supper, two of the most famous paintings in the world, but he left fewer than 30 paintings when he died, and most of those were unfinished. He was a perfectionist and procrastinator, having worked on the Mona Lisa on and off for the last 15 years of his life. The Last Supper was likely only finished because his patron threatened to cut off his money. He spent much of his time drawing up plans for inventions like the submarine, the helicopter, the armored tank, and even the alarm clock, none of which came to fruition in his lifetime. Remaining today are at least 6,000 pages of his drawings and notes on everything from astronomy to anatomy – mostly written backward, decipherable only in a mirror. When he died, he apologized “to God and Man for leaving so much undone.”
