Of course, it’s going to take about two months before it manages to show up. I had a lot of fun creating glogs and interacting with people on Glogster.com. They’re going to have more contests, but I think I’ll just continue messing about and not worry about points and so on.

Still haven’t decided what to do with the iPod, though. More than likely if I don’t keep it will head to eBay.

I’ve been soooo neglecting this blog, but to be honest, there hasn’t been much to write about. I don’t go anywhere, I don’t do anything, and writing about the weather gets awfully stale.

However, it doesn’t mean I’m not keeping busy. I’ve been talking to a couple of good people online, I’ve been working on a story, and I’ve joined FictionPress.com. I’m going to start putting up some of my short stories over there. Maybe they’ll get a wider audience then on my blog.

I know I’ve been told I ought to collect my stories in a book, self-publish and sell it, but making money off my stories is really not what I want. I suppose if I put effort into it I could make some money, but that’s not why I write. If it were, there’d be so many ads plastered all over this blog you wouldn’t be able to get past the first word without buying something you don’t need.

I love telling stories. My fondest memories when I was kid was having an audience around me as I made up a story on the fly. I want my stories to be read and enjoyed. That’s what is important to me. Here’s a comment that was left recently on my story, The Affair:

Writing like yours is the stuff that ends up famous after the author dies, lmao- plaguing students for centuries.

I like that thought. Thanks, Lav.
