Until recently, I had no links to my blog from anywhere in the outside world. Because of this, the only visitors I had were friends. My girlfriend has read it almost every day since she learned about it, and Vanilla Gorilla has read it from time to time, but I’ve had very few hits from people other than the two of them. Last week, however, I was added to the “Reader Blogroll” at Vox Day‘s Blog. Since then, I’ve noticed several hits from unknown readers every day. I just wanted to say welcome to you all, and thanks for checking me out. I don’t read other people’s blogs much, except for Vox Day’s, and only because his is along the lines of his World Net Daily column. Because of this, I don’t know what’s normal for bloggers, and I don’t know if I’m like the rest or unique in my own way. I explained a little in my first post what was going through my mind when I started this thing. I’m not much of a writer, and don’t have any hang-ups about my amateurish style and ability, and don’t apologize for it. Since I wrote that post, I have tended in the direction of posting things I may want to remember in the future, but don’t care if the world knows. It’s kind of turned into a sort of diary that everyone on Earth has access to. The strange thing about that is I don’t journal. I kept one in 5th grade because I had a teacher that made her students journal, but never have on my own.
Aside from this blog, I have a few others that I occasionally write to. Saturday Soup is a deal that Vanilla Gorilla and I were doing in our free time just as a joke between us. It probably wouldn’t appeal to many, but was fun. We did two short stories where one of us would write a paragraph and the other would pick up where the first left off. Now we are going into one of us writing a sentence you wouldn’t hear in conversation and the other coming up with a story that might cause that sentence to be spoken. 419 Fun is where I was going to write my dealings with international email scammers, but couldn’t find the time to keep the email conversations going. That blog will likely be deleted in the future. My Test Blog is where I have tried to learn the ins and outs of Movable Type and set up a layout that I like. When I come up with a layout I like there, I will move it to this blog.
If you like what you see, please come back. I don’t write for any specific audience, and while my life is a bit of an open book, I don’t write anything too personal. Comments are open most of the time as well, and I’ve never deleted a comment. (I will if I ever get spam or anything that is intended to upset me or my known readers.)
God Bless!
