Sending Letters to Myself

Well, here I am. I have been putting some time and thought into what I want to do with this blog, since I have been unhappy with it for quite some time. I am thinking of keeping most of my pictures in a separate web gallery and going back to actually writing here on my blog. That's not to say I will never post another picture here, by any means. I am still in the process of thinking all this out.

I started this blog to encourage myself to write more often, but I am more drawn to photography than to writing. And it is so easy to post a photo to my blog instead of having to sit in front of the keyboard and actually write something. I think the key is that I need to just write and not worry about who's reading this stuff. Trying to be clever or thoughtful is a lot harder than actually being clever or thoughtful. I don't want to have to think about it all. I just want to write. I suppose that, if I write something terrible, I can always delete it. Or... I can just let it sit there and be what it is.

I don't want to even think about each post having to be some polished piece of information that I am disseminating to the world. I just want this to be me writing to myself, for the most part. If anyone else is interested, so be it. Read along.
