15 years of blog writing...anything I've learned?

 Well this is fresh. Since the last time I posted here I feel like I've had a new life thrust upon me: marriage, actual work, medical woes aplenty and just life becoming more adjusted and getting the tools and help to become a more well-rounded person.

I read back on my young adult ramblings and honestly they seem pretty pedestrian. What else to expect from a upper-middle class kid who had everything handed to him on a platter.

I've also realized a lot of this stems from my recent ADHD diagnosis, so it's pretty nice to be able to have a mostly intact timeline of seeing how I go from one thing to another.

I'll see if I'll keep writing here, but all in all this little patch of virtual space, my own acre of whatever, seems to be holding up pretty nicely.

More Broken Promises

I honestly think that I always bite more off than I can chew.

I promise that I will make an effort to write into this blog as a way to channel my musings, but that's about it.

In terms of creative writing I will admit that having taken over DMing duties for my current D&D Campaign has helped my creativity achieve interesting results.  What is great about this experience is that in a way the effort is a collaborative one, as my Players are the ones who interact with the world I have created for them, all I can do is react to their actions and tell them how things happened around them.

Maybe I should use this blog to chronicle their adventures.  Perhaps that will help with my writing.  We'll see what happens.

I Live, I Die, I Live Again

Taking a page from the Immortan Joe 'How-To Guide' I have decided to resurrect this blog for my own personal amusement.  It won't contain anything revolutionary, but I like the minimalist approach and randomness of this tiny little real-estate afforded to me to both express and delude myself into thinking that I am some sort of unappreciated genius of my time.

One can hope I guess.

I think I will use this blog to try out my fledgling attempts at writing some coherent novel.  Monk Storm still persists in my head and I want to write this goddamn action story once and for all.  It may contain purple prose, it may be terse, but I need to write down something.

One thing I have learned after watching MMFR is that showing is better than telling.  Hence I have promised myself to stop my verborragic lawyering tendencies and actually follow the Hemingway school of 'shut the fuck up and go kill a bear with your bear hands' way of writing.

Wish me luck.

Wednesday

Hoping for a comeback...

It has been a while since I have posted here.  Maybe I should get off my fat arse and try to come up with something interesting to write here.  Get the infamous creative juices flowing.

Monday

Abandoned But Not Forgotten

I hope to post here soon...

Thursday

It's been a while

I'm not in cryostasis or some weird Fringe Science thing.  I'm just a lazy bastard who's too busy right now.  I'll get back soon.

Wednesday

Month and a Half

So before the start of my Sankt Gallen experience, I will be loafing and enjoying the small things in life: food, books, Revell model kits, pipe-smoking, etc.

This is the motherfucking king of speedfreaks. It is my mission in life to get something as awesome as this into my skiing arsenal.
