Everything has to start somewhere. As a famous (well, not-so-famous) author once said: “It ends with a beginning. And it begins, as it ends.” Now that we have the overly-dramatic uncorking of champagne bottles out of the way, I’ll talk about what I’m hoping to achieve with this website. Apart from global domination, of course.
For the most part, it’ll exist as a showcase for my work. Whether this is my writing, my film making or my photography, I’ll be updating it frequently. There will be samples of my work (or, bandwidth-depending, external links) in the according sections. I’ll also be running an Irregular Blog (can I trademark that?) which will serve as a more informal stream of consciousness/a clearing of the digital throat. I’m also hoping to entertain a lively community. We can discuss ideas together, or you can fawn over my work like sycophantic cultists. Or, you know, constructive feedback, that’s good too.
So, to summarise (and before I impale myself on my own parentheses) I’d like to thank all/both of my early viewers, and I hope you’ll enjoy both the website and the blog over the next few weeks/months/centuries.
Well, it looks good so far. Can’t wait to see more. Nice colors. Nice layout.
Thanks, should have it ready soon 🙂
Looking nice so far. Hopefully you have that comment thinger turned off. I hate that shit the most while trying to leave a comment.
Can’t wait to read it. I’ve always been a big fan of spiritual mysteries.
First off I would like to say awesome blog! I had a quick question in which I’d like to ask if you don’t mind.
I was interested to know how you center yourself and clear your thoughts before writing.
I have had difficulty clearing my mind in getting my thoughts
out. I truly do take pleasure in writing but it just seems like the
first 10 to 15 minutes are wasted simply just trying to figure out how to begin.
Any ideas or tips? Appreciate it!
Thanks!
My tip would be to carry a notepad and pen with you everywhere. Any time you’re travelling or have some free time with nothing to do, think about possible stories or novels – you can start to plot, make notes or even start writing it there and then. I find it very helpful to have some bits and pieces ready to be typed up before I even get to a computer.
I was basically woirednng if you ever thought of changing the page layout of your blog? It is well written; I really like what youve got to say. But maybe you can include a little more in the way of written content so people can connect to it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or two graphics. Maybe you could space it out better?
I came to your “David J Marriott » The First Post” page and noticed you could have a lot more traffic. I have found that the key to running a website is making sure the visitors you are getting are interested in your subject matter.
It’s an amazing piece of writing for all the internet people; they will obtain benefit from it I am sure.
Heya i’m for the first time here. I came across this board and I find It truly useful & it helped me out a lot. I hope to give something back and aid others like you helped me.
Where do you study?
I’m really enjoying the design and layout of your blog. It’s a very easy on the eyes which makes it much more pleasant for me to
come here and visit more often. Did you hire out
a designer to create your theme? Superb work!
I could not refrain from commenting. Perfectly written!
