My first

So I figured it's about time I actually write a blog. However, I still find this whole blog thing a little creepy. Since I really had nothing to write about, I decided what better place to start than showing you, my friends, how I explore the internet.

I started out at youtube where I checked out Hughsnews , Claytonian , Gradual Report, and Fluffee Talks, very funny stuff .

I discovered Claytonian is also a writer when I stumbled across The Novel Experiment I highly recommend checking it out. He has a very interesting writing style and unlike everything out there on the NY Times best sellers list, it actually has an original plot, substance, and is extremely well written.

From there I ended up finding International House of Logorrhea which I am guessing no one else will be interested in but since your reading my blog, deal with it! I already have a strange attachment to dictionary.com so it is only logical that I was fascinated by this site which will unfortunately only add to my list of odd obsessions.

Due to the Stephen King influence/feel of the Novel Experiment, I decided to check out Stephen King's site where I happily discovered that there is something new for The Dark Tower fans Dark Tower: The Gunslinger Born - The Complete Comic Collection It's a comic series which expands on Roland's younger years exploring how he became a true gunslinger. It is written by the Dark Tower expert Robin Furth. Needless to say I ordered it right away especially after discovering that you can still get first editions for a reasonable price.

When I was at Amazon buying the new Dark Tower collection, I started thinking about all of the art I have collected over the years on my computer and how I desperately need to sort through all it. Thinking of my art made me realize I hadn't checked out any of the new stuff on Deviant Art and Imagenetion so logically instead of sorting stuff I got more.

After looking at and downloading tons of new stuff at Imagenetion and Deviant Art I decided to start closing windows. In the process of closing windows (thanks again Claytonian's links), I discovered An Englishman in Osaka and Surreal U both of which I found quite hilarious, but then again I have a warped sense of humor.

So there you have it folks, a great example of how I spend my time online. I am sure you are utterly bored at this point but deal with it, you decided to read this, everyone knows the first time isn't so great ;-). Okay I admit that was a bad joke...

Until next time

Thanks for the writing comments by the way. I'm trying to get that novel finished, even if it seems that it will be more like a novella.
