Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers)

pheww!

Just spent a minute (or twenty-seven), browsing old Posts. Random-like, but a tendency to the olden ones.

This time of reflection, ( or, perhaps, semi-infinite regression), is helpful when we’re staring at a blank post. Sorta like an orchestra tuning up.

New Readers? Those of you put off by the imagery of that metaphor, (or allegory…never have gotten the distinction too clear), i.e. orchestras? We are aware that orchestrae are a collection of people playing instruments, whereas this post is a single person, albeit 3rd person plural.

What can we tell ya? The primary quality of those who come here and not immediately leave is a certain intellectual/spiritual confidence. And sense of fun. After all, at the heart of the Wakefield Doctrine is the willingness to allow ‘what-ifs’ to step up and offer insight, new information and/or a sense of how others experience the world.

Where were we?

Hey! You might notice a slight change to the landing page.

In the bottom-center, right underneath the ‘ In a Hurry? …over here, answer these Questions (yeah, like a personality test)‘ box is a new one: ‘Benefits of the Wakefield Doctrine: Flash Fiction, Six Sentence Story(s) and the Unicorn Challenge.’

Shoutout to Denise and Mimi for their support and suggestions for this…

No, now that you mention it, we actually cannot remember the last time there was a change to the layout of the homepage of the Doctrine.

cool.

Still the Wakefield Doctrine.

Still trying to find the words that will form ‘the perfect Wakefield Doctrine post’.*

…out of time.

Pop Quiz: which is the scott in the photo at the top of this post?

* glad someone asked! The perfect Wakefield Doctrine post is one that, upon being read by a first time visitor to this blog, imparts an understanding of the principles of this here personality theory here sufficient to allow them to see the clarks, scotts and rogers in their world. That day.**

** Warning! Warning! As a New Reader you are entitled to know that, based on anecdotal information (over the past fifteen years), once you begin to see the clarks, scotts and rogers in your world, you may find it impossible to not see the clarks, scotts and rogers in your world.
