People are probably wondering why I do this, as opposed to just putting up my sporadic and apparently depressing notes every now and again on Facebook. Of course, there could be the real possibility that no one is really wondering why I am doing this and not really anyone cares. Either way, I felt that it would be appropriate for me to explain myself to those readers (or lack thereof) that are reading this. So I found this place pretty randomly by Googling free online blogging, it's nice because you can just use your GMail account to access everything. The layout is nice and straightfoward, and there isn't a whole lot of confusion as to how to use it. It's much more practical than my previous website and easier to organize than Facebook (not to mention it's not as commoditized as MyJournal or Xanga, I like the obscure).
As for why I'm blogging again, after my vain attempt previously with my own HTML website... Well, needless to say, I need an outlet of some sort, I suppose this provides that outlet. I'm at somewhat of a roadblock on my other writing (i.e. my novels and screenplays) that I need something that feels somewhat more conversational, somewhere where I can write like I talk. Granted I don't know that there'll be someone "listening" on the other end, but sometimes it's just good to get it out there. Additionally, I've decided to try to post daily reflections on my devotionals through Oswald Chambers's My Utmost for His Highest and other Biblical passages hopefully through this as well, to keep me accountable. I haven't gotten to today yet, but I have not forgotten. Well, that's that in a nutshell. Hope those readers out there enjoy, and if not, meh...
