OK, so I'm not over it.
The other thing wrong with my new tendency to blog is my obsessive compulsiveness kicks in. When I started this blog, I wanted to start at the beginning of my twins order and post the events in sequential order as they happened. Even though I began my blog in December and my twins journey began in August. I was even annoyed by the fact that I couldn't predate my blogs. Hell, maybe you can and I'm just not that advanced. Then I fell into the trap of wanting to blog about current events that were happening now in the here and now, but posting on the happens my current life would interfere int he storytelling of my journey.
Besides being a journalist (which can I really even call myself that since my words are no longer found in print) I am storyteller. Are my posts are too long and rambling? Am I doing this right??? I could take a one minute episode and turn it into a three page post complete with blow by blow analyses and description. And there may not even be much dialogue included in that, which was why i never felt comfortable as a playwright. I like to describe surroundings, feelings, flashbacks, colors, thoughts. It goes on and on.
So I'll end with a very blog like ending: What do you think? (my nonexistent readers) Are my posts too long, too story like, too this or that? How can I improve my posts? What do you want to hear, know about me? Send me an email if you're feeling it. Open for suggestions!
