Going Public.

I have always been a reading fanatic. As a kid, I remember spending my summers plowing through entire series of "Chapter books" sometimes reading two or three a day. (Nerdy, I know.) I'm not quite sure when my love for reading expanded to an avid passion for writing, but it did.

A few years ago I started a semi-anonymous blog. My purpose for starting that blog was simply to keep a record of the things I have done and places I have been. It has grown since that point, and I now often write about some topics that require a little more thought.

I've shared some of these "entries" with close family and friends, who have tried to assure me I actually have a knack for writing. Due to the fact that I'd still like to keep my original blog anonymous and private- I have decided to branch out and start a public blog, a blog that can be readily shared with all of you in my real life.

This is a borderline terrifying experience, as these thoughts are incredibly intimate and I'm not sure how comfortable I feel with making myself so vulnerable. But I suppose it's a learning process and we'll see where it leads.

Aside from this entry, the next several blog posts will be archived writings of mine. From there, I plan on moving forward with much more current pieces.
