I am Elaine and I am delighted that you are here!
I want to build a writing habit which I hope will grow into an addiction. How else can I do it, but to write? Trying to build a writing addiction via blogging is definitely taking a risk, but life would be monotonous if we don’t take the plunge ever so often. It is my hope that I can share with you my ideas, thoughts, and feelings that will encourage you to reflect and comment. I want to get fresh insights and inspiration from you too.
It is my desire that readers will stop by and help me build my writing addiction one post at a time.
Why the title fingerprintwriting? We all share many similarities and differences, but one thing that is truly unique about each of us is our fingerprints. I’d like to weave our uniqueness into the tapestry of this blog.
Some of what you can expect here…
- Reflections
- Photographs
- Inspirational quotes
- Life stories
- Activities of daily living
- Some random thoughts
Thank you for visiting:-)
Hello Elaine – we met yesterday at the Holi festival with Raj et al. We had a lovely conversation I’m certain of it, it simply that the multitude of beverages abridged my memory somewhat! I would love a reminder ….
In any case, I’m enjoying your blog!

Hi Bennett, thanks for visiting.
Here is the piece I did on holi in 2013. https://fingerprintwriting.wordpress.com/2013/04/01/phagwah-a-spring-festival-in-miami/
Yes, we did have a refreshing conversation. Here’s the reminder: A temporary inoculation to reality or a welcome mat to reality. I hope this is a helpful reminder:)
My regards to Steve and Hazel.
Hi Elaine! I don’t know if you still check WP, but I’ve missed your posts. I hope you and your family are doing well. Jill
Hi Jill, after what seems like forever, I’m now logging in to WP. Thank you for checking in on me. I will write a post tonight or before the end of the week. I have a lot of catching up to do on your blog.
It’s so good to see you, Elaine, and to know that you’re okay. You’ve been missed!
You use to be a regular on my blog but i changed my url and lost you and i just thought i should let you know. my new blog link is navrongochick.wordpress.com
Thank you, Sheila! I will be sure to visit you again:-)
I loved your post today on the half marathon, Elaine! Isn’t it amazing what we can accomplish when we set our mind and faith toward something? You did good!
Thank you so much, Jill! The mind is a powerful thing…
It certainly is.
Hi Elaine
I’ve nominating you for the Versatile Blogger Award. Although you’re under no obligation to accept it, I hope you will. 🙂

Bonjour Mme Fingerprintwriting,
You have a lovely blog and share some of my own blogging ambitions. I have become Word Press-ganged and am enjoying every minute. I have never found writing easy so l try to add a little to one of the three blogs l currently have every day. My problem is that l am hopelessly addicted to photography and it is eating into my writing time. And to top it all there are so many wonderful blogs, like yours, to read and look at that there doesn’t seem to be enough hours in the day.
Regards
Dan
Dan, thank you for visit and lovely comment! Yes, there are many blogs to read and respond and I also have to squeeze in minutes here and there to read and respond. I look forward to reading more about you and looking at your photos on your blog.
Several months ago, you visited my blog and left a comment on my post about letter-writing. I was feeling harassed then and busy with writing a book. But, I very much appreciated your comment and, since it’s better late ……….Thank you. And you have, here, something awesome. I’ll visit once in a while.
Thanks for the visit and comment! Best wishes with your book. Yes, do stop by now and then when you’re not too busy:)
