I’ve never been very keen on blogs. I like fiction and,
frankly, fiction is not really the best style of writing for the blog format.
However, the more I l read about the digital age, the more practical it seems
to be to have a home-base for thoughts and musings on a topic.
I am an author, by trade. All that I really want to do is
sit in a tower somewhere and write fiction. If I could have my meals brought to
me along with an endless supply of books and paper on which to fashion my
prose, I’m convinced that I could live quite happily as a hermit. I didn’t
choose to be a writer because it makes all kinds of money.
It really doesn’t.
This is why being a hermit is not a practical ambition.
That being the case, I have committed to create this author
blog about all of my current, past and future projects. Now, I do not make this
blog as an act of pride; as if the world would be darker without my writings. The
world will turn whether I write or not.
However, on the path to become a better writer, I find that
it is best to expel some of the thoughts that I have onto a public forum. Let
this blog act as something of my personal journal as well as a means of
promotion, because, unfortunately, in this world, that is necessary.
So, if you love fiction and value the storytelling art as
one of the most valuable of the humanities, then saddle up.
Until next time,
Cheers
