I know at least a couple of you do but don't make me search for the links. List them here por favor.

I think I would like to start a blog. I need a place for creative output and I want to start writing again. I used to write all kinds of shit from sappy poetry to scenes that included a large amount of other plot but were really about sex to Transformers fan fiction. I think I would be game for some poetry again, but maybe not the other stuff. Less sappy this time, though.

I use too. Called the B-Movie Blitzkrieg. It was me talking about really bad movies. Haven't done anything with in almost a year now though. However, I have been thinking about bringing it back. Especially now that Simon Says has died.

My thoughts exactly. Except for the Transformers fan fiction, heh. I made a new one and plan to use it as a catch-all. I'm going to try to actually be dilligent about entries but I've tried this shit before.

B E C K · « **Reply #6 on:** Aug 05, 2010, 07:09:20 PM »

www.blogger.com

I have a blogspot, but I'm not posting the link out here in the open where PEOPLE can see.

Fiero · « **Reply #8 on:** Aug 05, 2010, 07:42:36 PM »

So post it where people can not see.

Then why blog?

Blogging used to be what social networks are now, and some people like to keep them to just certain people, just like they do with their social networking.

Can't you just lock people out? I remember several music blogs where I'd click on the link and it said it was for invited peeps only.

Fiero · « **Reply #12 on:** Aug 05, 2010, 08:29:22 PM »

So fuck it.

It's not found!

It seems I forgot a definite article.

B E C K · « **Reply #15 on:** Aug 06, 2010, 11:46:30 PM »

I follow j00.

Rama · « **Reply #16 on:** Aug 07, 2010, 12:27:15 AM »

I also use Blogspot. And I plan on following all of you, once I remember what my password is.

B E C K · « **Reply #17 on:** Aug 07, 2010, 01:55:00 AM »

I have two currently, but am using one. The other's empty and I had planned to use it for whenever I had, like, site content. Two decades from never most likely.

It's also linked on the main page with the forum, my MySpace, and the Drummond site.

Pretty much the point of the blog is to fill it with writing no matter what, but it actually has to be a post on something as opposed to being a blog half-made of "Well, haven't used this thing lately. Hur." I'm trying to do one post a day. Merla visited it today and for whatever reason thought it was pornographic because I put that adult filter thingy.

Rama · « **Reply #18 on:** Aug 07, 2010, 03:19:54 AM »

I've actually decided to bring my blog back after I get home from vacation. Already know what I'm going to review too. Just have to make sure I don't write 5K word posts this time. Apparently people don't want to read that much.

I started a blog about fashion cause I was seeing too many girls dressed like SHIT in peru and philly...but then I moved to New York and I was enlightened. Also I only posted once. I was so excited about writing the darn thing.

Yeah, I'm writing fat posts, too. I've trimmed some things, but I'm gonna keep the posts somewhat lengthy because it's supposed to be a writing exercise more than a bid to bring readers with short attention spans. I'll probably impose a word limit on myself later so it doesn't get out of hand though.

Rama · « **Reply #21 on:** Aug 07, 2010, 09:39:54 PM »

I never set out to write that much, it just happens. It's done when I'm done writing about it. If that takes 5 words or five thousand doesn't enter into my mind. I did better my last time out before I stopped. I think it was a little less then 2K words.

B E C K · « **Reply #22 on:** Aug 07, 2010, 11:36:01 PM »

That tends to happen to my posts sometimes. I'll notice when I have the TV on and a show's ending but I'm still on the same topic. I'll be all "What the hell? It's just a damn message board post, it shouldn't be this long." and then I'll go and delete most of it and quickly submit it.

Fiero · « **Reply #23 on:** Aug 08, 2010, 04:56:40 PM »

Should I posting every day? That seems rather tedious.

B E C K · « **Reply #24 on:** Aug 08, 2010, 07:50:48 PM »

You mean posting in your blog every day? It probably is. You just post how you want to post. But do post something every once in a while. If you don't feed it, it'll die.

Rama · « **Reply #25 on:** Aug 08, 2010, 08:39:08 PM »

I try to do mine once a week, but they take a lot of work with the screen caps and what not. But you can like write 3-4 a day if you want, and then schedule them to show up at a certain time on a certain day.

This is exactly why it never worked for me. I have a short attention span for blogs

Fiero · « **Reply #27 on:** Aug 25, 2010, 08:59:26 PM »

I am about to delete everything I have on there now and start over with what I actually wanted to do there.

B E C K · « **Reply #28 on:** Aug 25, 2010, 11:13:56 PM »

Which was?

I couldn't do it every day after all. Blog I mean. I forgot that there's days I just want nothing to do with the internet. And a couple of times I kept getting errors on shit (like publishing) which increased my blog time to where I didn't want it.

Rama · « **Reply #29 on:** Aug 26, 2010, 01:44:25 AM »

I get the errors a lot too.

And I've fallen behind, but it's cause I have been working on my book instead. I was trying to keep up at Wed/Sat thing on shorter items and Sat on movies.
