I’ve often been asked what the best way to start blogging in [current year] is. It turns out, that’s a pretty difficult question to answer! Instead, I have some guiding principles I personally follow to help guide my choices.| catskull.net
This is my first real attempt at writing fiction since High School. It’s a “spiritual sequel” to the story told in “A Mind Forever Voyaging”, which I have documented on this blog.
