<< After twenty years of
photography and teaching, I tend to "see" more often than "ponder" and
at times, in teaching, for example, it's difficult to conjure up the
appropriate words for the images in my head or on the screen. That's
also what's holding me back from producing a book with photographs
(though I've written "academic" articles). Any suggestions?

Your unique vision (even though I have not seen your work) is an end product
of your experiences and "ponderings" so it is difficult to step back and
attach words to them. It's seldom that one photograph conveys one's
perspective but a collection or portfolio does. A suggestion would be to
collect your photos and let someone else write the text. Sometimes one's own
vision is quirky and not mainstream but both those elements do exist in your
work. A third party could make that connection between your persona and the
mainstream and bring it all home to the viewer.
