Writer's Blog

Think.

Think, dammit. You have to write about something.

If you don't, people won't read it. And people need to read something. Oh, you should also make it interesting. If not, they'll just peruse some lost-wiki to theorize as to who's funeral Jack attended in that last episode (SPOILER ALERT: I don't know!).

Or look at porn.

I'd like to look at porn, but my roommate is sitting next to me. Stupid roommate. Doesn't he know that I have needs, and urges; urges I don't have the prowess to actualize, save for a winning-lotto-ticket-esque stroke of luck?

Wow, that was one heck of a run-on sentence. I should avoid those when I write.

We have a sweet oscillating fan. Man-Vs-Wild is better, in my humble yet uninspired opinion, than Survivorman. I wonder: how do commercial actors feel about their career? Ok, now I'm just watching TV.

(the previous 4 statements were written over the course of 65 minutes)

Written communication. It starts with a spark, an idea in your skull. You put the pen to the paper, or in it's modern translation, the finger to the keys, and churn out a piece of writing. It's that simple. Why is it so difficult?

I blame the media. for featuring watchable programming which is just barely bearable enough to prevent me from cleaning my room, or worse yet, from writing the Great American Blog.

Which reminds me, I should figure out how to add digg-type components to this page (it's like a popularity contest for internet garbage, garbage I one day wish to produce). That way I'll know that what I came up with was acceptable.

But first, I must think about what to write about. I have deadlines, expectorant readers... Oh, wait. No I don't. Screw this (I at least have the prowess for that).
