A New Beginning

After having serious problems with my old blog, I have decided to start a new one here instead...

Recently I had the opportunity to help a friend with one of his projects.  This turned out to be a cathartic exorcise for myself as I was able to come up with a few new conclusions about my own projects.  I have spent the last several years working on different writing projects with only a limited amount of success.  It isnt that the work isn't good, rather it is from a lack of commitment from myself and my constant problems with staying focused on anything for more than a short time.

I am a good writer, I know that much.  Hell sometimes I am even a good artist.  I can think of a few people who will tell you the same thing.  This isn't me trying to be egotistical, rather it is a reaffirmation to myself that my work is of worth.  I forget that sometimes...

There is a line in a Shinedown song that goes.  ...Am I sick or am I gifted?  I think for me this is appropriate since both fit.  Of course depending on the day one will hold more weight than the other.  I cant say that this new creative me will only work on one thing...or even 12...but I am going to do my damndest to finish things.  Technically I have two small 'books' for someone elses RPG system done that just need artwork so I know I can finish those soon....I hope.

The project that my friend did reminded me of that.  I know that it probably sounds silly, but thats sometimes what it takes for me to get working again.  Part of this new revelation is that from this moment on I will be updating this blog a minimum of twice a week.  It will be a combination of rants and writing, maybe splashed with some art now and then.  No, I dont know for sure what days, but stay tuned for that....

In the meantime I will do what I do. Read and write comic books, dabble in fantasy, and generally dislike anyone not on my 'friends' list...
