Blogs. They're everywhere these days, and they've grown mightily from the high school-ish LiveJournals of yesteryear. No more is Jenny posting cryptic messages ridden with song lyrics about how Bobby doesn't like her and likes Sue instead. Well, maybe Jenny is, but joining her are respectable news channels like CBS, CNN, and ABC, and well known professionals in the politics, sports, music, and arts fields. Moby has a blog. Al Roker has a blog (it's very, uh, happy.) Jaime Oliver has a blog. Neil Gaiman has a blog. Even Dr. Sanjay Gupta has a blog! You know, that guy whose name seems to pop up in every news clip about medicine that's on TV. (For an impressively comprehensive list of famous people's blogs, go here.)
So, I've decided to give in and create a (semi) respectable blog of my own. Not that I'm famous. Yet. But just in case I get a book on the New York Times Bestseller list one day, I want to give my fans something to read while they're waiting for my next novel to come out and are as bored at work then as I am now.
Cheers!

I think that this site is an excellent idea. Relying your feelings and work to others, letting those out there who might be estranged to you now find out what you are up to, and your own style of witty, yet informative, reviews keeping us all interested... I like!
To join the ranks of both Al Roker and Neil Gaiman, who probably have never even been in the same sentence before, is something both daunting and impressive.
