So, I have deleted over half of my blog posts (2 out of 3, to be precise) and intend to give this blog some actual purpose. What should I use it to talk about? How can I structure this blog to assist me in organizing my life? Spouting every thought that goes through my head is obviously not an effective writing strategy, and refined writing unrelated to the content it is surrounded by is more often than not ignored or missed altogether. For these reasons, I've created this list in order to keep myself on track.
Topics that will be be central to this blog:
- My thought, creative and design processes
- Deconstruction of and commentary on issues that immediately affect me
- The various projects I work on independently or those I associate with
Topics I will attempt to talk about sparingly:
- Politics
- Controversial issues that affect me directly (DRM and piracy, potentially more politics)
- Deconstruction of media such as games, music and film(what did they do right/wrong, the elements that work and why)
- Events in my life that can fill a few paragraphs and make an interesting read
Topics I will avoid:
- Pointless drama
- Anything I can fit into 140 characters and post on Twitter
I hope to have a new, proper post up soon enough, once I've decided which project I am going to dedicate the most time on these next few days.
