Diaries of An Aspiring Writer

I've tried just about every medium of writing in the last 20 years or so. Some have taken, others not so much. Oddly enough, I've never done something as simple as a "Blog". So in the spirit of the great explorers who have preceeded me I say "Why the fuck not?". Okay, to be fair, I doubt many of them were quoted as saying that, but I am quite certain they thought it at least once.

Enough about me, let's talk about me. I am in the process of debating whether or not I should attempt to keep my private websites going. If you're not familiar, I've been an entertainment and electronics consumer review writer for a while. I've been attempting to publish my own work and run my own network for a couple years now. However, beyond that I have actually written for several already existing networks.

Right now I am starting to think the latter experience was better. Letting someone else worry about the hows and whys whilst I just write was nice. Sadly, it's also less profitable. Then again, my last attempts have pretty much resulted in a lot of money in product and licenses bled from my already withering checking account.

Let me be frank right now when I tell any of you who may be pondering the idea of writing as anything more than a hobby; unless you can actually commit, don't do it. I say this not out of a concern for failure, but because it is quite easy to let someone else down or be let down yourself.

With that said, I am going to run with the blog concept for the time being. What that means is, should you choose to read with any regularity, you will be subjected to my random whims and thoughts. Should you choose to not read here, I will just hunt you down and hound you with my opinions anyway because that's just the sort of ass I am.

'nuff said.
