It's a place where some of my centers of gravity make their appearances, in the forms of motifs, recurrences, and themes; a container for the things that entertain me, wrestle with me, and occupy the mountains, cities, seas, landscapes, and skyways of my mind.
And though art can be personally revealing, art isn't always personally revealing (or autobiographical).
Certainly, there are bits, pieces, and tendrils of me at insilentpassage.com, but there are many works (nearly all of the works) that are the product of my imagination, wishful thinking, and fanciful fabrication (i.e., fiction).
Ultimately, how my content is interpreted is up to you, but I rest easy knowing that in its creation I followed my moral and ethical compass—my conscience.
