Carp diem

Ideas float into the mind and out again, like a fish glimpsed for a moment in clear water. Or a fish suddenly coming into view in a huge aquarium. 

Something remarkable floats into life every day. Into each life. Something superlative, a best of the day, a most of the day.

Seize the Carp is about noticing the remarkable, dipping the net into the waters of what is witnessed and presenting the catch of the day. 

Seize the Carp is strictly catch-and-release.

  1. "noticing" is what I noticed...I like your idea of short blog posts. I wonder if people are more likely to stay with a short piece than be discouraged by a long piece. It has given me the idea to write more often maybe...only shorter posts. thanks, Laura
