I've been trying to resist the temptation to point out all of the trivially awesome things that are occurring elsewhere on the interwebs for several reasons. I haven't decided what to make of this blog; I'm not sure whether or not to keep it strictly writing or go crazy and post whatever I feel. I've decided that I will, at least, keep the things I post to a minimum, as there are blogs out there that are constantly scouring the net for the latest in kitschy news items (namely,
boingboing.net, a blog I frequent several times a day). The other reason is traffic. Since twelve midnight of this date, four people have visited this site. Four. Of those four people, maybe one of them actually read anything I posted (I don't mean to be entirely cynical or insulting to the people that have read my stuff, I'm just trying to be realistic). Keeping this in mind, I think I'll keep it mostly writing, as that's what I feel most people who visit this site (read: 3 out of four) come to expect.
Sorry for the long drawn out post over nothing, I just felt that I needed to iterate a few things. This blog is first and foremost an outlet for my writing, a place to throw up things I feel proud of just to feel like I'm doing something with them. If this site didn't exist, I'd probably have to give them to Rebecca Wolff, and I'm not sure she knows what to do with the stuff I've already given her. SO: come to expect nothing from this as I have, and we'll get along swimmingly (I suppose I'm addressing an imaginary audience). I try to write consistently, but as we know things don't always work out as we intend. If there is someone who has seen this blog and visited it on more than one occasion hoping for more, be patient. I will put something up, though it may take a few days.
Oh, and if you are one of those people, thank you. I didn't start this to get exposure, (if I did I would have considered it an immense failure) but if someone does enjoy my stuff than that's more than I had originally hoped for.
