I tell myself it's about motivation; I tell myself I'm not like all the other hacks out there. The truth is I just want attention. I want people to hear what I have to say. I want to be recognized, but at least I understand my own delusions of grandeur.
So why did I do it? Why did I stoop so low as to use a blog for my creative outlet? I say it's a matter of motivation: I am stuck in a sticky situation that combines a very busy schedule with a feeling of overwhelming laziness. I like to think that if I have an audience (yes all three of you), it might motivate me to create on a more regular basis.
These intentions are very grand and I have a tendency to not live up to my own expectations. But I'm pathetic. I want you to love me. I want you to read my work and say "Fuck, this kid is talented!"
This probably won't happen, but I may just be able to delude myself into believing I have an audience that gives a shit and waits anxiously for my next posting. This is all very sad, but at least I'm being honest.
So what can you expect from me? Ideally a little of everything. I have diverse interests: I love creative writing, music, movies and I am a New York sports fanatic (Let's go Yankees, Giants and Rangers!). You'll definitely find some creative writing up here. But you're also likely to find reviews of movies and music. I also have intentions to use this blog as an outlet for the rage that tends to accompany being a New York sports fan.
Yes, the operative word being "intentions." I have a lot of them and I would like to post new material on a regular basis, but I am a busy guy. I work a full-time job, I have a band and I have a fairly active social life that consumes most of my weekends. That's right... believe I'm important! Believe I'm popular! PLEEEAAAASSSEE!! I need you to.
So with that said, I hope you all enjoy what I've got to say. And if not... well ... go fuck yourself. If you hate it, that's your right as a human. And you can feel free to let me know your feelings. I can take a hit as well as anybody. If you think I suck or just want to tell me I'm an asshole, I welcome your destructive criticism.
And, to all you thieving hack jerk-offs, the material on this blog is COPYRIGHTED! All pieces of writing on this blog have either been published already or copyrighted. Yes, it is completely egotistical to think that someone would steal some of my work, but the internet is a very shady place and I never underestimate the dirtbags that prowl its seedy underbelly. So fuck you assholes (you know who you are) for your worst intentions. You're a plague!
In all seriousness, I appreciate any feedback I can get. If you want to get in touch with me on any kind of personal level, my email address is jims1080@hotmail.com. Feel free to drop me a line. I crave your attention!
Cheers and regards.
