Hello reader.  My name is Ellen, and I write things to show people what I’ve learned so that they don’t have to reinvent the wheel.  Sometimes you may find those things to be inspiring.  Sometimes what I write is wrong and makes you angry enough to change things to make things right, or at least better.  I like to explore the blurry lines between reality and the stories about reality.  As with all explorations, I may retrace my path later, to find a tree has fallen across the path when nobody was around to hear it.  I may get lost.  I may find others who know the way and can help.
