I've heard it said that, were you to gain the ability to fly, you could often fly around and not worry about being seen. People so rarely look up that the odds are good that you could go unseen without any powers of invisibility.
Whether or not it's true, I do find that I'm usually looking anywhere but up. However, whenever I do glance skyward, I appreciate it. There's always a cool cloud formation or a gorgeous moon or a starry night or trees blowing around, being trees.
When a writer tells me that they're stuck, one of my canned responses is, "Have them look up. What did they see?"
About Me
- Kevin Bahler
- I am a writer. A writer is one who writes. By the same logic, I am also a thinker, an observer, and a puzzle solver. I am a graduate from the State University of New York at Cortland with a degree in Professional Writing. The idea of the program is that one studies all three aspects of writing as a whole: Creative Writing, Technical Writing, and Rhetoric. The knowledge I have gained in those subjects is put to use in every aspect of my life. The worst thing a person can be is boring. I am most interested in people who can pique my interests. An example is people who can correctly use the word 'pique'.
