11th of January, 2012
I had been sitting at my computer for some time, trying in vain to find inspiration for my latest blog post. I read somewhere that when doing creative work one should never leave anything blank. Whether on canvas or the computer screen, the longer you stare at the white, featureless space, the longer it takes to create anything of worth. The empty Word document bled me of all creative energy and left infectious doubt. I was left with enough strength to only write three words: “no, you can’t”. In three little words, I had successfully obliterated my confidence. Whatever precious little time I had set aside that day to write was spent in silence, save for my spoken reply:
“Maybe you’re right.”
Present Day
“180 Degrees of 314.00” has run it’s course; or, more accurately, sank on it’s maiden voyage. I became bored and disheartened with my writing, something I now wish to rectify.
Enter “Little or No Filter”; a blog that focuses on my most important goal: becoming a better writer. On this blog, I will be crafting posts without schedule or doubt. Here, my readers and friends will watch me grow as a writer, and may even be entertained by a story now and then. I am now free to grow without stress or pause.
