Green Flags, Closes Finishes, and Freelance writing

Not that these actually go together, but this is a nice moment for me to come to you and talk a bit. Grab a cup of coffee, or tea...get a quick smokey treat, and lets talk.

This years Indianapolis 500 was simply the best racing I have seen in my life. This being my 18th 500, and the other countless races I have seen should add some level of credibility to that claim.

The NASCAR race sucked in comparison, but in my opinion they always do. Like everything else in my life, I break from the pack as much as possible...and the weird thing is, it isnt on purpose. It just happens that what I follow, like, belive in , love, do..blah blah blah...isn't what most enjoy. I am good with that, and it took a while to get there, but I am happy with me.

Sam Hornish Jr. won by the second closest margin ever. The pass for the lead happened two seconds before they crossed the finish line. I was in heaven. My father, who has shared this tradition with me for each of the 18 years was going crazy. It was a great sight.

Freelance writing is cranking back up, got a few articles this week for the Golf Magazine in Chicago to finish up and then will get SIRIUSly started on my novel. I am heading down the home stretch and each page, each chapter takes a bit longer to create. Not out of lack of creativity...but out of importance for exactly the right words.

I hope this finds you well, I will be in touch soon.

Take care,
EJ
