I don't like blogs.

And that's funny because, I've always liked writing, and reading, but that's really beyond the point.

I've always found it funny. Blogs adn people who take themso sereiously, like writers who think they are accomplished writers, what a joke!

The problem for some with setting a blog, is not getting responses, that means no one reads their blog, which translates into the fact that you would reach out to more people if you actually posted stickies in your car and drove around town.

The thing about blogs is that, like fanfiction, it leaves the author with the feeling of self satisfaction, it makes him feel like a published author, like someone who is puting his two cents and should be listened.

This is, of course, wrong. 

A blog is simply to put what bugs you, and hope somehow it will go away. People don't read it, people don't care, and those that do must either really be your friends, or owe you money and want to trick you into a false sense of safety.

As it is, this blog is for me, and me alone. I will simply post stuff and not ask or wait for anyone to reply, if you do, great, if you don't, it matters none.

Because writing for me is venting and sometimes I need to vent and sometimes a story is born, and so be it, and if not, then I'll bore myself to tears.
