My Transition
|
Posted By: Ivan Butcher II on September 13, 2011 Greetings, I have been asked, What Happen? They have not seen anything written by me in awhile. others infer that, They shut me down : ) No, it's one of my creative mood swings. I feel I have expressed just about everything I have to say, at this point in time. The way I ended many of the challenging responses, to my position on the many social issues I addressed, Talk is Cheap. I have been dragging my feet on this project, which is at a transitional point of my creative life phase, as an artist. During this past period in my career as an Artist, I have found that, the Pen is mightier, than the Paint brush. I used Blogging as a method to promote, who I am and what I am about, before trying to selling anything. I have come to an understanding, that no one is going to come and knock on my door, unless I extend myself. These websites and many others offer free advertising to a world market. The article that really gave me focus and purpose was, Picture This......... After receiving a response to, After Forty Years Still Not Accepted, the question was asked, aren't you supposed to be painting and drawing. It has been suggested that, I should put together a manuscript of some of my writings. Those who haven't read my earlier articles, either ask, I send them or where are they posted. I realize that, I am getting to old to be putting things on the shelf : ) Dr. Roberta Knowles, U.V.I., a dear longtime friend, has agreed to work with me on getting a manuscript of the articles I have written to publication. The title of the book will be, Picture This.........., an anthology of my writings. Dr. Knowles has suggested that the feedback , both pro and con, received would be a valuable addition. So, if any of you have a position to a specific subject or article, I addressed, send them to me. If your response is chosen, I would need your permission to include your name, no anonymous will be used. Please send me some of the earlier things I sent out, like after 9/11 and on, I have lost them because of a computer crash. Keeping focused, Ivan If you enjoyed this article, Join HBCU CONNECT today for similar content and opportunities via email! |
