First Post

First post. Simple enough. Not that it matters. Fuck it. I suppose I'm writing this as a way to vent. My mind has so much time to wander. I keep thinking maybe I will write a fucking book. But I'm not so into non-fiction, and this is what I really want to talk about.

I could go on for a while more about that. Just ramble. Maybe that's what I should be doing. I'm just not really sure. But the thing is... I think that this is the reason that I chose to write a fucking blog over a fucking book. Let me put it to you as succinctly as possible...

If I wrote a book, it is without question, that I would put a lot of effort into it. I would most likely, after many months, end up with something much better than most of the garbage that gets published. But I grew up poor. I am not connected to any publishers, or obviously, anyone else. At the end of the day, my novel would be like my college degree. Useless paper. Just heavier to carry.

So, here we are. I am going to blog. I can say what's on my mind, and at the same time, whether it is true or not, I can have an idea in my mind that someone is listening. Possibly even relating to what I am saying. So hi. My name is Tom.
