And as imagination bodies forth
The forms of things unknown, the poet’s pen
Turns them to shapes and gives to airy nothing
A local habitation and a name.– William Shakespeare (A Midsummer Night’s Dream)
As I worked on this new blog today, the first thing I noticed as I picked my title and chose my theme, was the above quote. No accident, as it was no doubt specifically chosen by the theme’s designer or WordPress to entice the blogger to using this particular theme. Well, it immediately caught my eye, so mission accomplished. I have a weakness for the idea of imagination. It’s been a driving force in my life since my brain could grasp the very concept.
I’m no stranger to starting blogs. In fact, I’ve made enough of them to start my own personal blogosphere. A web of multiple blogs, each unique in it’s own universe drastically different than the previous one, all awaiting the inevitable crisis looming to condense them into one all encompassing web journal.
That crisis happened at the start of the year when I created a new account on the Ghost blogging platform. I liked Ghost, I really did. However, I could not justify cost of using Ghost when there were free options available. So I wandered the world wide web for a few months after my trial account lapsed, periodically checking back to blogger, blog, and LiveJournal to see which would be the best substitute. None made the cut.
So here we are at WordPress and the fantastic quote above. This will be the new, and final blog. I have included a few of the Ghost blogs posts here as well, including the first ones with my goals for this year. Let’s revisit that, since 2014 is finally wrapping up. (Thank God, by the way for that. It’s been a terrible year overall.)
So here we are again, at another NANOWRIMO. The goal this year is get book #2 done. After that, we can get back on some of these other goals. In fact, I better get cracking.
Till next week,
DC
