Hello there. Welcome.
My name is Edward Roads. I thought it would be different, but also fun and challenging, to blog my thoughts and observations two sentences at a time… I love to read & enjoy walking around Salem, MA…. Simply put, I try to write down things that fall out of my head.
Thank You for visiting & don’t be a stranger.
Your two sentences at a time is rather self indulgent and doesn’t help humans with much useful advice. I would recommend that you read my blogs for inspiration and start writing two sentences which will help them cope with their daily lives in some way. Best wishes. Uldis.

Uldissprogis, your comment is rather self indulgent and doesn’t help humans with much useful advice. In fact, I took your advice and visited your blog. Speaking of self-indulgent . . . Ah well, to each his/her own. Since you are pretty free with your advice, may I offer you mine? Please, sir/madam, lighten up a bit. Art doesn’t need to take a lecturing, advice-giving tone to be helpful to people.

Well that was weird. I got a notification in my email just a minute ago that said I liked my own comment. Not sure how that happened–really, who DOES that kind of thing, to write a comment and then like it?! What I do like, and like very much, is what you are doing here, Edward. Great stuff.

This is a brilliant idea for a blog. Writing two sentences is a great habit that can be harder to do than it seems. I recently began writing American Sentences (Allen Ginsberg’s variation on haiku) every day as a means of forcing myself to condense, to practice writing more succinctly. I’ve found that it has also became a way to capture highlights from each day. It looks like your two sentences are doing that for you as well. Cheers 🙂

Hello Edward. Many thanks for your regular visits and likes at my blog. I was just wondering if you would like to attempt the September 3words prompt idea within your own interesting blog idea, of just two sentences? You could still use the 3words, but within those two sentences, however long you had to make them to incorporate my prompts? Could be interesting. I hope. But no worries if not. 🙂
