My poor, neglected blog

Oh, I am a very bad blogger. I am, I fear, completely unfit for the modern age. I have yet to figure out how to compress my thoughts into 140 characters, and I occasionally have feelings that cannot be expressed in emoticons. I am a :( little man.

At any rate, the most egregious symptom of lack of modern je nes sais quoi is expressed most forcefully here, at my lonely little blog. But that's all about to change. No longer will I be the Bartleby of the electronic age, preferring not to share my soul in narcissistic, unread posts that sit on a disk on some server somewhere, waiting to be served. No, from now on, everything I think is coming out here, damn it.

And the first thing I think is "Who am I kidding? I'm not going to be a blogger." So enjoy it, fictional readers, while it lasts, because I might not get around to posting something here for another couple of years.

What I really wanted to talk about, though, was Shock Totem, a most excellent little horror venue. They are excellent, of course, because they took one of my stories. But, even more excellent, they seem to actually be enjoying themselves putting this thing out. They are a fun, enthusiastic bunch, and I admire them for doing it. So check them out, and buy a few of the back issues. This sort of thing deserves to be supported.
