New domain
I have a new domain for this blog where I will continue to update regularly.
Please update any links you may have. Thank you.
Guest Post Announcement
I have an announcement to make! Listen to me dammit!
I’ve made a guest post over at the blog Life of a Teenage Writer. You may have noticed the name of that blog over there on the right hand side. Why would it be there? Because I enjoy reading his blog. Mr. Daniels gives some very good advice, on running your blog and just on writing in general. If you write articles on a regular basis, or just run your own blog I’d definitely give the blog a read over.
I must admit, it drained from my rather small pool of ideas to write that guest post, but when I think about it I was probably never going to write that stuff here anyway. May as well help people…I suppose. I would also like to thank Mr. Daniels for pointing out that I don’t have an RSS button, something I could have sworn I did have. Well I shall get right on that!
Anyway, here’s a link to the guest post: Writing Content that Sells.
A Dream…
You stand up. The sky is black, no stars will light your path tonight. The Moon is nowhere to be seen. But you know it is night time.
You take in your surroundings. You are standing in the car park of your old school, but there are no cars. You call out for anybody who could be there. There is no one. You search your pockets. There is only a blank white piece of paper. You think it is photograph paper, but you’re not sure. Your hand feels slightly numb.
Why don’t you have your phone? You always have your phone. Why don’t you have your phone?
With a sudden sense of loathing, you start up the hill, walking up the road to your school’s main building.
Unemployment uh…shmun..employment
It’s never fun when you don’t have any money.
An unfortunate side affect of the current economic climate is the incredible difficulty in getting a job. And earning money online simply isn’t going to keep me alive. I suppose this blog could be a decent money earner, if I had any decent writing talent. Which I don’t. Though I do have a lot of stories in my head…I suppose I could get them down on paper. Or on a website to be more exact. I could write a book! All fantastic ideas, but I kind of need the money now. You know…before I starve to death. There’s a reason this blog is on a free host ya know.
Still, I’m not really trying that hard to become successful online. I have a terrible ability to motivate myself, combined with a total lack of fresh ideas. And when lightning strikes and I do have an idea…I never have any damn paper to write it down. I’d also have to become a member of the social life that is being a blogger (hehe…before I edited that I’d spelt ‘booger’…ha, funny). I have seen this “Music Monday” thing going around, seems likes a good way to get my blog out there. But my preferred music isn’t quite what you’d call mainstream stuff. And the Music Mondays just seem like a cheap way to get a post and get people to look at your blog. ARGH! I’m torn between wanting to be legitimate and wanting to be a success. I hate having to make decisions.
If anyone needs me to do some trivial task, I’m fully willing to do whatever it is for minimum wage. Except sexual favours. I doubt my significant other would be too pleased with that
