(FULL DISCLOSURE: YOU’RE GOING TO FIND THIS BORING)

At the beginning of 2009, I updated very infrequently.  I saw maintaining this site as a chore, and I didn’t like that about myself.  Here I was, considering myself a writer, and I wrote all of two times in February.  I decided to step up my game- I redesigned this whole thing, gave myself items to keep up with (What I’m Loving Right Now, Funtime Film Fest), and started paying much more attention to and cultivating this blog.  (That’s a word I hate to use, as there’s so much stigma attached to it, but guess what- I keep a blog.  That’s what this is.  And I like doing it.)

Quickly, writing became less of a chore, and more of an accomplishment.  And the results speak for themselves- I posted 25 times in April, 20 in May.  It’s less in May, sure, but the posts themselves are more involved- a lot of April was funny videos I found, whereas May is full of epic poem-length soliloquies on Wolverine.  (I promise, I’m really working on that, writing more… efficiently now.)  So here I am now, three posts and three days into June, keeping up a steady stream.  And I do feel accomplished.

I guess what I’m trying to say is, writing is fun again, and I feel pretty good about it.
