My Very First Blog Post

So, this has been an idea for the longest time. It's been a thought basically since I first started this website nearly 2 years ago. What kept me from doing it? All that plagued my mind was, "What would I write about?"

I don't do tutorials, although maybe sometime in the future I will. I'm still learning when it comes to the writing and art world so I didn't think I should write about the industry. So what would I write about?

Well, this week, it hit me. Yeah, I may not do all the stuff above, but I'm still living a life. And although I post my updates and such on my social media, 260 characters, or however many are available on twitter, is never enough to express my full thoughts. Sometimes I won't post anything on social media because my thoughts are too extensive. There is only so much you can cut and replace with synonyms to fit the limited space twitter provides.

So why not do it here? 

Here, I can freely express what's on my mind. I can talk about the stuff going on in my life and share my experiences.  Even if there are times I won't have anything to share, having the option to freely do so opens a completely new world and may even create some new connections with people. 

Thus, here is my brand new blog. This is where it will all culminate. With this feely open space I can present the stages and processes I'm going through with my writing, art and other projects; I can share the new things I've been I've been learning; and I can talk about the exciting and even draining news going on in my life.

Welcome to my new blog: the Dark Woods.
