Introduction

Welcome!

I'm not exactly sure what I'm doing, but I'll give it a shot. Usually, I have a hard time expressing or conveying my thoughts, but I'm throwing caution to the wind. Mainly, because I doubt anyone will read this anyways. Publish my thoughts for the world to see, all I have to say is beware.

The name of my blog is in reference to the magazine I one day hope to publish called reading revival. It is an attempt to resurrect reading in America by various amateur writers submitting short stories and poems etc. I'm sure there's dozens of magazines out there with pretty much the same premises. Mine would include art as well and of course I would proof read everything and have the final approval of whether or not I want that story in my magazine. I think I like short stories the best, because you can usually read them in one sitting.

When it comes to writing I'm a complex individual. I go from having no ideas, to too many ideas, and when that happens I tend to become one of the following: lazy, tired, distracted, horny, hungry, or what have you, thus leading to nothing being written down due to lack of time or effort on my part or else I'll break off into tangents or become scatter brained and be too confused with myself to write down anything I was thinking about. Note to reader: see previous sentence as an example of what I'm referring to. This causes me to lose focus and confidence in my ability to actually complete what I'm writing and accomplish anything worth while. I guess you could say I give up too easily. Go figure. Furthermore, my mind will go blank or I'll become lost in thought. I tend to ramble and what makes it worse is that in person I tend to mumble. So the essence of my message is seldom understood no matter what method of communication I attempt to use.

Another one of my goals is to one day write a novel and several short stories. However, my writing style is unique and rather painful to read. I have no form and no idea of sentence structure. As much as I love reading and writing I have absolutely no concept of proper grammar.

My motto is: Writer's write, Editor's edit. A second one is Revising is Lying. But in the blogosphere world I imagine everyone revises and edits, so in that aspect I might not fit in. Oh well. I will probably post rough drafts on here on occasion instead of just ranting and raving all the time, so you can edit and revise for me. Nothing funny or interesting happens on a daily basis for me to come up with material to write about that way. Then again I could make stuff up.

Today I traveled back in time and had a conversation with Babe Ruth. We talked about whether or not he was upset with Hammerin' Hank and he said no but he would love to have a Homerun Derby contest with him. I volunteered to be the pitcher and I said next time I will take Henry Aaron back in time with me, so we could settle once and for all who is the best homerun hitter of all time. However, he strictly told me not to bring Barry Bonds. We smoked cigars, drank, and gambled the night away. It was all really fun. I also asked for his autograph, in which he signed hundreds of them for me and you can start purchasing them on ebay tomorrow evening. They will be going for around 500 a pop. Bye, bye college loan bills. Hello down payment on a house.

All right, back to reality. In reality I'm extremely tired and going to hit the sack. Catch up with me tomorrow. Don't be shy, I can't see you through your computer unless you turn your webcam on.
