Writing About Writing: Enough is Enough.

So let's face it - one of my favorite topics to write about is, well, writing.

It's not like I planned it to be that way; I just realized that that's all I ever really write about anymore.

And while I do enjoy expressing my extreme distaste for the way kids butcher the English language nowadays, I figure it's time to shake things up a bit and write about something else for a change. But honestly, figuring that out is difficult for me because my life is boring.

I remember when I used to have this annoying blog account with Xanga (which, technically, I still have, but never write on anymore because Xanga has turned into something horrific). I wrote on it at least every day, sometimes twice a day.

And I look back now at my old posts and wonder: how the hell did I come up with different topics every day? I mean, my life wasn't any more exciting than it is now, and yet, every post was different, and most weren't about writing.

So my new goal is to find more interesting, non-writing based topics to blog about.

Here's to hoping that I can.

::edit, 5:57 PM::

So I spent the greater part of today researching myself in past blogs on Xanga, trying to figure out how I was able to write so much.

And let me tell you - I don't know what happened, but reading my entries actually really helped the writer in me come back out. Amazing. So, readers (all one of you), expect interesting entries, for I already have a few in mind.

Yeah, that's a goal I have, too. I was so inventive then. Or maybe I just cared a lot more about things that aren't boring.
