About Chris Simning

I have a passion to write.  However, the art of writing does not come naturally to me as some may think.  I have to hone in on it.  I chisel away at creating those word pictures that best captures the experience.  It may take some fifteen minutes to write something that in retrospect would take me two hours.  I am a perfectionist.  Still, I have much to improve upon.

My passion to write does not diminish.  It never has.  There have been numerous occasions, far too many to count, where I have imagined how I would piece together an experience onto page.  How would I describe it?  What words would I choose?  How would the five senses come alive?  How could I enable the reader to feel; touch; see; taste; and hear. 

I contemplate how best I can invite people to participate.  I want them to feel, think, and be moved.  Movies such as Rudy, Field of Dreams, and Man Without a Face inspire me to write.  I suppose it is much like a puzzle to me.  Every word has to fit accordingly or it does not belong.  This could be to my benefit or to a demise.  I laboriously pour all my energy into creating something of value, meaning.  In so doing, I want to resuscitate readers from boring jargon into a world of liberation.  I hope to paint pictures through terminolgy that motivates minds to something greater. 

My desire is that you will celebrate life through the entries.  They may strike a chord, alleviate some remnant of pain, or simply be used to usher in a sense of joy, peace, and freedom.  I reside in Gilbert, Arizona.  I am a full-time time speaker by design and a secretive writer by all hours of the day.
