I have blogged about various specific subjects in the past, but recently I decided that I would like to create a site dedicated to writing about anything and everything that interests me. I want to write about whichever subjects inspire me at the moment without worrying that they fit the theme of my site. From my prior experiences I have found that the subject of my blog inevitably starts to feel restrictive because my focus in life changes and morphs as time progresses. Eventually I feel the need to move on.
I am a visual artist, but I also love to write. I consistently kept journals in tiny decorative notebooks from age 13 to 26. They are taped up in a box, not to be opened until an undetermined time in the future when I feel prepared to explore them. Blogging replaced journaling. Regardless of the form, writing has always been an expressive and cathartic activity for me. Lately I have not been writing because I had truly outgrown my last blog to the point where I found the subject of it to be completely uninteresting. I had nothing left to say on the matter. I was over it.
When I change my mind and move on, I really do it. I don’t tend to look back.
This blog is going to have no cohesive theme, except that it is written by me. I am writing just to write. I’m not giving any hints about what I will write about. I will just write.
