thought a little bit today about what i want/don't want for this blog.
i had some conversations with people about this blog and other blogs. and i read some other blogs - some contemporary, one my internet archived xanga from 2005-2007. i felt incredible boredom at one of the former, incredible shame at the latter. i also enjoyed other blogs i've read. more people are starting them, which feels good.
so i do not want it to be a diary, a mild survey of 'what i'm doing', nor do i want it to be a place where i post embarrassing political or personal opinions. i want each post to have a purpose, and i want to emphasize writing - books, writing, reading, publishing, and other writers. of the posts i have already queued up, this is the theme so far. i like it.
ok
I agree that a blog should have "artistic direction," which, like any collection of writing can take time to find. This beats tweeting though.
