“You’re so good at writing, you should start a blog.”

If I had a dollar for every time I heard this – I would have exactly five dollars to afford one small coffee WITH an alternative milk.

What. A. Luxury.

Instead. I sit in my small apartment, coffee-less, with nothing but a blank page staring back at me, telling me that I have nothing of any importance to write.

It’s not wrong.

The thing about blog writing is you typically have to pick a topic and run with it – maybe make a series out of it, a theme as one would say.

We have travel blogs, business blogs, self-help blogs, and those ever so detailed food blogs – “Hey follow my blog for more yummy recipes and includes a telenovela of my recent breakup in alarming detail and what led me to the creation of this pad thai. It’ll mend your broken heart!”

First. I gotta try this Pad Thai.

Second. My telenovela is short and brief and just involves me stumbling around life as your average, run-of-the-mill kook.

Third. Bless you for sticking with me and reading this far.

Self-doubt and imposter syndrome aside, I truly do not have anything of importance to write. I just like to write.

So my theme is simply no theme at all. This is my blog, this is my self-expression and while I wish I could say you can eff right on off if you don’t like it – I genuinely hope you do.
