So the real reason I am starting this back up is as a forum for daily writing practice. In that sense, it is not really designed to be anything interesting or interactive, but maybe it will be thought provoking.
Everyone says-well maybe not everyone- the only way you get better at writing is by writing everyday and this is what I will attempt to do.
Now I have tried this countless times, I have had a blog on this very domain previously, I have routinely started journals to record my days events and then find myself months, haha, weeks later forgetting to do it or more often than not just plain lazy, so I skip a day and then a day becomes a week. Now some of this is a result to I often try and write these journals by hand and this is something I am not really accustomed to doing along with when I change my mind or wish to re-write sentences it just gets sloppy. Can't really delete or erase pen and white out is too much trouble. So back to the computer the device I really grew up writing on and what most writers use anyway, not that I am a writer, but much like wannabe cyclists you turn to professionals for inspiration.
So this will be my forum for the near future, or until I get distracted and forget to update and it is back to the internet ethers......
So why am I attempting this again? Well my writing in my opinion has become pretty abysmal and maybe a side project this final year of MBA school for me, besides looking for a job, can be used to returning my writing to a decent level and hopefully leading me to better confidence when answering the strong verbal and written communication question on every single job application.
Even though, lets be honest the question should really be- Can you send an email that doesn't make you look like a complete fool? So I am doing this for selfish reasons of course, I need all the help I can get to find a job and make some money to live.
This brings me to topics, well hopefully I will find some writing exercises and these posts will not just be pure rambling but focused as a result and then I can deconstruct them and they will provide me an opportunity to publicly display an evolution of sorts. This will of course be an example of what not to do.
So if anyone perhaps stumbles upon this post with any suggestions on this new journey, please provide me suggestions in the comments or don't....
