Blog Birthday Tomorrow
I just realized that tomorrow is July 13, and Write Lightning will be one year old. I wanted to take a moment to say thanks to everyone who has given advice and support, and also to any of you out there who read often, but don't ever say anything to me directly. This is a great medium, and a great way to connect with some really fine people. It's also a good form of discipline for writers, though it can be its own form of procrastination at times. I hope each of you who read this are getting as much fun out of reading and writing blogs as I am!

A Rose By Another Name
I had to laugh about Axl Rose (of Guns N' Roses) this morning. It happened when I read the story of a judge tossing his request to stop an album release by a company who had bought the rights to some of Axl's earlier recordings. The topic itself isn't funny at all. I just never knew Axl's given name until now. He is William Bruce Bailey. How cute is that? He's in the music business, and his name is Bill Bailey. Someone told me his stage name is an anagram for "oral sex", which I never noticed either. I have no idea whether he did that on purpose or not. I really know very little about him as a person, and have mostly seen tedious replays of his drunken acceptance speech at an award show, aired whenever his name comes up, as though that's the sum total of his experience in the music world. I can't do much about that. But it's fun to know that, underneath all the negativity that seems to surround Axl Rose, he has a part of him that's a Bill Bailey. I can't help but muse about what kind of music a guy like Bill Bailey would make.
