I've had some version of "Words Matter" as part of my artistic and professional identity for more than 25 years, now.

​

My life, and my self-perception, has changed dramatically since the first time I used the tag line, "Words matter. Make yours count."

 

The WORLD has changed dramatically in those years.

 

What hasn't changed is my conviction that I'm supposed to pursue writing and literature as both an artistic/creative outlet, and as something which affords me the opportunity to interact with and impact others.
