I wasn't going to mention writing for a while, but the nice note from "Anonymous" about my identity made me think. How do I describe myself, how do I identify myself, etc. You know, am I a Mexican, an American, a Latino, a...a.... Look, I am a writer. What country is that? That is the country where I fly my flag.

Lately, I don't want adjectives added.

You know, for every "brilliant" or "handsome" or "funny" or "moving" or whatever description one could add, there is the just as easy "fat," "boring," "cliched" etc. I am Batman. I have a secret identity, and only Cinderella knows it.

As Larry Norman so rightly sang: "I'm only visiting this planet."
