Topics
We’ll see how this goes…
If you haven’t noticed, I seem to be experiencing an extreme, I mean extreme block when it comes to writing anything here. I can’t seem to punch out the good stories like I used to and when I think I need to update, I need to write something, I go blank.
Listen, kids, I really don’t want to write about politics because as I’ve said here several times before, there are so many others who just do it so very well and say things I want to say way better than I could ever say them and all I end up with is what looks like an angry screed. I have my opinions, if you’ve been here awhile, you know what they are but I think it’s not really my strong point. I’m so much better at story telling.
But what stories interest people? What interests me can be downright BORING for anyone else so it’s not a matter of, “write whatever you want” because whatever I want isn’t necessarily interesting to anyone and the POINT of having a blog is to write something frickin’ interesting. Otherwise, I should just write in a little locked diary I keep in my dresser drawer.
So, help me out, kids. What, if anything, do you want to see here? What topics interest you? Is there anything you want to know?
I’ve toyed with the idea of putting up more photos, I’ve toyed with talking about pets and animals more, I’ve toyed with going in a completely new direction....but none of it matters if no one cares to read it.
I need some stimulation, I guess is what I’m saying. I feel like I’ve been brain dead for the past two years and yes, being surrounded by mindless people who can suck the very will to live right out of you does not help at. all., not having any sort of intelligent conversation at. all. does not help and it’s like my creative wheels have come to a grinding, screeching, rusty halt. And any time something starts to spark, I’m interrupted by a dog not behaving well, a cat not behaving well or nonsensical racket from a neighbor outside. It won’t be like this forever, I will get the heck out of here one day and stories will be flooding this site but until then....I need a motivator.
If you happen to come across this and read this, tell me your interests, maybe I actually know something about them or have a story about them or whatever but throw me a bone here, kids.
A mind is a terrible thing to waste...mine feels like it’s going to waste...feel free to give it a kick start. Consider this brain storming…
Or, maybe no one cares what I have to say. I accept fully that it’s a possibility.
