I guess I am not politically correct by labeling people as ignorant, no matter how truthful it is. One of my hobbies in life is writing. Writing science fiction and probably some fantasy, and I&#8217;ve learned to pay more attention to people and look at the motivations behind their actions. Watching what people do and figuring out why they do it is a good source of understanding on how to write characters. </p> <p>So, what is a blog? A spot to vent? Maybe a place to put down deep thoughts? </p> <p>My definition, a purpose for the domain I&#8217;ve had for years and never did anything with. Besides, I guess this could also be a spot for putting down long winded rants about bad intros and bland dialog, amongst other writing issues that drive me crazy. If I&#8217;m lucky I might get in a dozen posts this year, well, I can dream. If not, at least there will be a note for anyone letting them know why there isn&#8217;t much here, and may never be. Who knows, one day I might find I like it and feed the site regularly. Don&#8217;t hold your breaths. <img src="http://lorddarkstorm.com//rsc/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt="&#58;&#62;&#62;" class="middle" /></p><div class="item_footer"><p><small><a href="http://lorddarkstorm.com//index.php/2008/01/01/what_is_a_blog?blog=1">Original post</a> blogged on <a href="http://b2evolution.net/">b2evolution</a>.</small></p></div> Some days I wonder about the direction of the world, but then I come to my senses and realize that trying to judge the motion of the ignorant masses is best left for those who enjoy that sort of thing.
