What a very appropriate daily prompt I see today. A one word prompt that sums up my summer. The fact is that I have been so crazy busy for the last four months that my blog has taken a back seat. My dilemma has been that something has to give and sadly paid work has to take priority over writing for fun.
There is a great deal of irony because it was this WordPress blog that directly led me into the world I now inhabit. I began writing here to give myself a creative outlet after being forced to take early retirement on the grounds of ill health (depression.)
I now find myself writing and photographing for two music magazines and an USA based news agency. All of that, my drift into creating art and becoming a professional photographer began right here on WordPress. As a consequence I feel that this little corner of the internet is a part of me, it is largely responsible for me being in a totally creative world and for my current happiness and sense of well-being.
As a bit of fun I present you with another Dilemma. On Saturday I attended an all day photoshoot with four other photographers and six lovely models. During the first part of the day I was shooting a beautiful model dressed as an autumnal Poison Ivy. By coincidence the adjacent room also had a Poison Ivy so we all got together to shoot a slice of double trouble. The Dilemma? How do you choose your favourite Poison Ivy from these two beautiful lady’s?
Haha, Why do you have to choose a favorite poison ivy?
…That’s pretty cool about writing and photographing for two music magazines. How did that all come together for you?

The first one picked up my music musing from this site and invited me to write for them. The second followed in a similar manner a few months later and I am now the live music editor on that one 😀

That’s awesome. I hope my passions come to fruit like that. Music is my medicine as well. I live in a paper box and my neighbor’s wonder/complain why I play music incessantly… If I didn’t I’d probably be an alcoholic at the very least.
