Matte Elsbernd web publisher. writer. photographer. 29 years experience.
Writing is one of those things we all do, often on a daily basis, whether it's a grocery list or an email to a friend. Rarely do we take the time to step back and realize what we're doing. To notice that reflecting on the words we use, the images we create - all of that matters just as much for a note to take out the trash as it does next generation's literature.
I haven't written as much or as often as I'd like. And so far, my writing is underrepresented online. So enjoy these aged nuggets and return periodically for something new.
Some Writings
the first time we kissed,
was in the natural history museum.

it was a school field trip.
our fifth-grade class was studying about ancient earth. in the room with all of the enormous skeletons of brontosaurus and tyrannosaurus rex, she pulled me close, and kissed me. as i remember it, we almost fell and toppled a small baby dinosaur. our teacher saw us and quickly separated us. but i've never been able to separate the images of those dead creatures and her kiss.
