I started blogging five and a half years ago with the intention of my blog never being anything other than private. It was just a more organized way of keeping a journal, for my own delight and amusement. When I did go public two years ago, it was with a commitment to keep my blog in the spirit of audiencelessness with which it was begun, and if anyone decided it was interesting enough to read, that was fine by me.
I’ve tried to keep that air of audiencelessness for the past couple of years, but it’s been feeling a little off lately. I DO have readers. Whether I intended it or not, there is now an audience, albeit a small one, so forcing audiencelessness is becoming disingenuous.
There has been a major transition going on for me creatively over the past five months or so, and although I’m not even sure what I am transitioning from or to, there is something going on, and taking my blog out of the dark is part of this process. I don’t know whether this will bring a different focus to my writing, but time will tell.
So, hi audience! I had no idea there would be people interested in some subset of writing, vegan baking, yoga, shoes, and the nerdly splendor that is me, yet here we all are. I’m here because I have to be here, doing this, and whatever it is that brought you here, well, howdy. Enjoy.
Hi Blogger!
Yes, we do read your blog. We are glad it’s not private. It’s fun. You write well. Highly entertaining.
Keep it up.
Thanks, The Audience!
