Loading ...First Entry
Well, this is my first post to my first blog. Who knows what this will incite. Perhaps it will just die a lonely death like so many other dabblings started with good intentions. You know, life and all that getting in the way. Or is it just laziness?
So, what should I write about? Well, I guess I can give some initial info about myself and some warnings. First I’ll give the warnings. I have a tendency to be a little verbose sometimes and to write in a stream of consciousness way. I’ll try to avoid this as much as I can. I’ll also try to spell-check and proof my writing as much as I can. I have a bad habit of including lots of typos. Does it matter that much in a blog? I would guess so because your audience is other blog writers who tend to be good at writing, right? Ok, well, maybe I’m biased.
I guess this is where I should mention my friend Eric who actually suggested I start one of these and who has been writing his own, critically acclaimed and comprehensive blog for the past 8 months or something like that. He IS a writer, not just of blogs, but as a profession. Here’s a link to his blog.
Ok, now a bit about me. I am a 30-something web developer from NYC who’s been living in the Washington DC area for the past 7.5 years now. One of the reasons I’m embarking on this little writing experiment is that I run my own website devoted to dvd’s. Due to many factors, I haven’t been able to devote the amount of time to it in recent months that I had in the past. However, I believe one can always make time for things one really wants to work on, so I’m hoping this will give me an added motivation to write in general that will carry over to the website and this will help motivate me to start writing more dvd reviews and content in general. The site is called DVDMON.com
Although I could just keep writing ad nauseum, I think I’ll end this first entry and see how this thing works.
