I agree. But hold up, let me explain my thinking.
As a lot of you may know if you have seen/followed any of my other lines of work (though of course I don’t at all think I’m well known enough for anyone to fanclub on me that much) the majority of my output as a writer/performer/creative type is through either performances or my proudly inconsistent YouTube channel, both of which are great fun but don’t deliver a regular stream of content, as I so wish to, and neither of which involve me frequently submitting written material without any audio-visual accompaniment. I have no intention of changing how I work practically, and I suppose I’m almost quietly smug at how painfully long I take to produce anything on a solo-level, so starting a site for regular articles which I can create in far less time seems like a good solution to me. (That doesn’t mean I’m not gonna care about the shit that goes on here though. I’ll treat it with the same perfectionist scrutiny that I treat everything else I do with, from crafting a mental backstory for a character to opening a cup-a-soup. It’s just gonna be more regular than the other things. Which I think is rather cool.)
I’m quite excited about it. It’ll be a somewhat alternating mixture of opinion pieces and media reviews, because, as many of you probably know by know, that’s pretty much my bread and butter. But hopefully through doing it in this new more regular form it’ll become something quite independent to the YouTube channel or any pretentious tweets of mine.
I dunno. Stay tuned I guess. First proper post coming soon.
