I am not computer savvy, nor am I hip with pop culture. That is just a warning that this blog will hopefully be interesting reading, but perhaps not so interesting looking.
The reasoning behind starting this blog is that as a writer who craves an audience I can pretend that people may stumble onto this and TA DAH! I have a reader. As for my endless journal entries, stories and poetry stored in this computer, I don't have much hope for those being read by people other than family and friends.
I call myself a writer because that is all I have ever wanted for myself. When I learned to tell stories by drawing pictures, I knew I would write once I learned how. And that's about all there is to that. I have not yet changed my mind, even though I haven't earned a dime from writing, it persists as my number one dream.
A blogger is born.
Let me introduce myself for a moment. I am a person working a boring menial job. I graduated from college with a bachelors in clothing design (not writing, more on that later) and I now work at an entry level job where my back and feet hurt at the end of every day.
Now before you throw your dreams out the window with the bath water, I need to tell you that I am happy, a series of uncontrollable events and conscious decisions landed me where I am today. And I truly believe I belong where I am.
As the title states, this is only an introduction and you will learn many intimate details of my history in this blogging process, not all at once.
I have a boyfriend: The BF. I have a roommate: K. I have a vast number of siblings, mostly brothers: all referred to by Brother or Sister and the first letter of their name ie. Brother T sent a picture of him playing soccer in South Africa. He looks pretty cool in the picture, which is interesting, because when he played soccer in his formative years he always looked miserable.
Mom and Dad will of course be Mom and Dad, or possibly the mum and big D, but probably not, because I don't talk like that, unless I really want to.
So that is it. Welcome to my blog! There will be greater fun and adventure on the way, although I can't guarentee that it will all be superb, I can guarantee that I will have fun writing it, and that is the whole point.
