Writing is one of my passions ... along with my 2-year-old nephew, cars, taking pictures, road tripping, hosting radio shows, music, collections (models, HO scale train, legos), etc.
Last month, an article I wrote was published ... and I started writing more on my Route 66 story, as I noted here:

Thank you, Ultra!!!! It is good to be here...albeit not as often as I'd like....
Along with writing for Cheers and Gears sometimes, I recently joined a friend's blog, Motor Gnomes, as a Staff Writer:
http://www.motorgnomes.com/2011/03/introducing-staff-writer-cort-stevens/
This should be fun ... and a good way to encourage/foster/enliven me to write more often. My first entry is here:
http://www.motorgnomes.com/2011/03/charging-forth/
As for my Route 66 story, I was a bit disheartened when, after adding a new section in late February 2011, the original host website was disbanded. But, at the same time, another friend told me about a new blog of his in which my writing would fit perfectly. So now, that blog is up and running...
http://whenthegoingisgood.com/
...and my Route 66 story, _That's The Highway_, has a new home:
http://whenthegoingisgood.com/category/route66/
All sections, including the newest section (#10 ... "Stall Tactic", written 03/12/2011), have been posted. Future additions to the story will also be posted here ... so check back, if you are interested.

Sharing a bit more of what I've written because passions ... writing, picture taking, road trips, radio shows, music, collections and, of course, my 2+-year-old nephew ... make life worth it.
