What Is This Crap?

If you are one of those who actually check my site frequently rather than those who stumble here through Google,  you may be wondering, 'What the holy fuck of fucks is happening?'

First off, hey, I rarely swear on this site anymore. No need for the king of swear words to get tossed out twice right at the start.

But I get it.

The last several days, there have been several very short and not really significant pieces; often, a few posts even doing their little thing a few times in a single day.

Why?

Well, first off, it is blatantly a few posts in a day only because I've promised myself to stop backdating my pieces and own up when I miss a day or week.

But I'm also really struggling with burnout, overwhelm, and a brain refusing to do much of those things we call thinking.

I am not quite ready to tackle a piece of substance or a movie review right this exact moment. I do want to slowly build back my writing groove and confidence. I want to make it a regular routine, and also just try writing even if the creativity isn't soaring.

So, you are getting these pieces at the moment. It is sort of a trial run before I try to start really aiming for an audience and delivering my best work.

This is also why I haven't been promoting any of them. This is only being found by those who go to this site without prompting, subscribe through a feed, or are pushed in by Google.

This is not the long-term plan. I hope to deliver some more interesting and substantial posts within days.

For now, thanks for sticking around.
