I'm not a political blogger, I'm more of a journaller. It began as a way to make sense of my feelings, a way to understand myself better and a way to record life. In between times, I've done pointless memes to fill time, I've linked and unlinked it to my twitter account and I've written the odd piece about burning issues* that have bugged me.
I haven't written in the april showers blog for a long time now. I've stared a lot at the dialogue box willing inspiration to come, but it hasn't and so those of my friends who stayed in touch with me via my blog are woefully underinformed about my life. Strange for an aspiring writer, but then... well, I'm more of a fiction writer, so maybe it's not that strange.
My life does have a narrative though, and I kind of want to start chronicling it again in a different way, a more developed writing style and a more diverse blogging style, perhaps including some of the work for my creative writing course, if I ever manage to get back into it. Either way, it doesn't feel right to use the old blog, and I'm not such a fan of livejournal anyway. I've tried dreamwidth and wordpress but... I don't know. It doesn't fit. So let's try blogger. Let's try blogging. Again.
*I think issues should always be typed in itallics; it adds just the right amount of emphasis.
This is me (on the right) and my beautiful fiancee. On the photo we're in the Animal Kingdom at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida. A year after this was taken we went back to WDW and she asked me to marry her. I said yes. I'm in the middle of writing and editing the proposal story, and when it's done, I'll post it here.
