A casual peruser of this site might notice that the blogs here are old, with the last ones dating back to 2017. I happen to think they are still rather apropos, especially since Afghanistan is still a part of our national experience, but I would also be the first to agree that if the “pen” referred to in the name is to be germane in any way, new writings need to be added and a genuine, relevant dialogue undertaken.
So, I will be writing and posting new pieces, and in that process, will attempt to strike a balance between my love of literary “gymnastics” and a meaningful, down to earth conversation with the readers who may stumble upon this site and find it worth a look now and then.
So, here’s to a Happy Thanksgiving, a Merry Christmas and a Joyous New Year…
