I set this blog thingy up today, and from the lovely selection on offer I chose 'Ethereal' as my background. What that says about me, I'm not sure. Do I want my writing to be seen as 'ethereal'? 'Extremely delicate and refined' is how the dictionary describes it (and yes, I did know what the word meant before I looked it up - what sort of a pretend writer would I be if I didn't?)
So yes...alright, that'll do for starters. I don't mind people thinking of my writing as 'extremely delicate and refined'. That's if anybody ever reads it. 'Nina's Witterings' isn't exactly a title that draws the eye excitedly to what's coming next, is it? In fact it reads and sounds more like something a weary nurse might scribble on a patient chart at a mental hospital. But hey, if I want to be a writer then I've got to write things. Writing novels are great, but you do need the stream-of-consciousness stuff too sometimes. Which is I guess what this blog will be for. I won't blog about anything in particular, just things that occur to me every now and again. And I will write, as the majority of writers tend to do, as though I had an audience of people who are actually interested in what I have to say, regardless of whether or not that actually turns out to be the case.
(Deep breath) Ready, set, GO!
ADDENDUM: this blog is now called 'Fake Blonde Procrastinator. For obvious reasons.
