Sunday, 3 January 2010 19:14Arr yarr yarr.
I have a plethora of blogs at the moment.
In addition to LiveJournal, which has been my home for many years, I have a wordpress blog, a tumblr, another wordpress install at UNBC, and even a blogger site hanging around somewhere (I think).
But I use them for different things. My tumblr, for example, is a repository of pictures, youtube videos, and other relatively pithy content. LJ is for venting, and following a few interesting communities. FGJ is my "official" blog for the folks and everyone to look at and see what I'm doing. And the others can just gather dust.
Now, this blog... ideologically, I totally support dreamwidth. I love the fork and their ethics. And I hope nothing but the best for DW in the future. But as is, almost of all of my contacts and subscriptions are still on LJ -- there's no reason for me to follow my "reading" page on DW.
But since I like DW, and I want to start using it more, I figure I should go ahead and give this blog purpose.
So yarr. I hereby declare this my writing blog. I'll make an effort to post here once a day, either with drabbles, story fragments, or at least a brief update on how much I've written.
This will coincide with (yet another) concerted effort to start writing again. Yes, I'm shy and scared of sharing my thoughts and phrases with the world, but fuck that noise. It's time to be brave and inflict my textual horror upon the world.
Arr.
