+ about this blog
So here we are, at something I have come to late, as usual. While half the universe is on Twitter, I am on my first blog. Not really the first, if you count Live Journal. I don’t,mainly because I never did it enough to really get the hang of it.(That’s what she said.)
So why this blog? I’m not l sure. It took me a half hour just to come up with a name. Here are the rejected close contenders:
Christian Zombie Vampires
Yankee Underground
Who Dares, Wins
Bonus points to the first person to tell me where the actual title came from. Extra big bonus points to who gets two of the three above. The third’s personal ,so you won’t get it.
What will this be? I’m hoping it’s going to be a mutt. Not a purebred professional blog,because frankly, I’m not purely professional. Not an all personal blog, because A) I don’t know all of you and B) Purely personal blogs have almost seemed to me like public masturbation. I don’t know anyone who I need to know what they had for breakfast, except two.One I married and the other I helped create.
What willl be on here? Those of you that know me will immediately guess “rants”. I prefer the terms op-ed pieces. I’m hoping to post some fiction as well, and the occaisional link.
What do I want to do with this? Get my name out there, for one. I turned forty in July of last year, and have since embarked on a goal of getting published by the end of this year. It’s not going well, so here’s another avenue to explore.
What am I writing? Honestly, not much at the moment. I finished a novel for Nanowrimo called Heart Core. I have the plot in my head for the second in that series,Heart Cold, but nothing I can show anyone just yet. I also have the simmering project known only as Green Man that I think is finally ready to be unleashed.
What sort of subjects will be on here: Movies. Music. Books. Pro Wrestling. Paganism. Conspiracy Theory. Politics. Hockey.Talk Radio.Role Playing Games. Video Games. Lists.
So if any of this sounds remotely interesting, keep coming back. If you like what you read, link me or tell someone. If you think you’ve got something I should talk about or link to, write me at elric23@yahoo.com. If you’d like to comment, I don’t know If I have that yet, so if you think this sucks harder than a Dyson, write me and tell me that too.
