Snarkattack
I get an idea, write a very, very coarse draft on sheets of paper that have one side already used. I attempt to type that up onto this blog interface grace a Wordpress and usually end up adding buttloads more banter. A notorious procrastinator when it comes to typing, I have several more entries handwritten than I do typed up. Call it old school, just prefer to create it that way first.
Miniblog as yet unnamed
Definitely grew out of my love for list-making and the my paltry attempts at surrealism in contemporary writing, as well as a previous experimental writing project that once appeared online. Seeing as I seem to like making lists of what I’ve read or listened to, or what beauty products I’ve used, thought I might give this Miniblog plugin a go.
The lists aren’t just banal; for me they are very practical as my memory goes blotto during episodes of clinical depression (i.e. somewhat frequently). They help me ‘retrace’ what went on before, when mental health starts to improve. Essential for someone whose memory was very good pre-nervous breakdown.
The miniblog will be for the things I really dig, and so will try to be very anti-snark, and hopefully, not crap on about my constant battle with clinical depression. There will most likely be a list of my ‘Wildean ditties’ that I like to snap out on occasion to get a laff out of my pals.
