Blogging

I keep forgetting that I have this (English written) blog. Not that I get around to writing anything for the German one, but still.

Anyway, last night Jon Stewart had Arianna Huffington on. As is the case with most topics, his thoughts about 'blogging' align almost perfectly with my own:

Of course, I'm in a very differen position than Stewart, not having my own tv show and all. As to "Write what you know", I actually would very much like to do just that. I can imagine some people might be interested in my illness, its treatment and my dealing with all that. Sadly, writing about it - writing about anything, for that matter - would require, well, discipline. And that's a little short around here at the moment.

Still, to take some advice from the likes of Huffington and Andrew Sullivan, blogging should not be like writing a novel. It should be more like corresponding via e-mail, or text messaging even.

With that in mind (and I hope I will keep it in mind), maybe I'll start blogging about some of this more serious stuff. Not that anybody's still reading this site, anyway...
