Drunk on Writing

So I've tried my hand at the art of photomanipulation, having seen what many talented DA artists are creating. Having been a H U G E fan of when it comes to stock images, I decided it was time to put her work to work (?).

I wanted to create an image that represented a story I've been working on (and by "been working on" I mean started, forgotten, re-wrote and have never finished). I wasn't in the mood to hand draw something, scan it, digitally colour it, blah blah blah...so I gave photomanip a try.

Overall I am actually quite pleased with the result. Granted, I am trying to add it to a background and work with light and stuff, but this initial result is quite cool. And it makes a nifty desktop pic.

So I've made the decision to blog...to put my life in full view of the world. I don't know why...I don't read other people's blogs so why would anyone read mine? Why can't a just keep a diary like I did when I was 8?

I guess we all want our stories to be heard. Before, back in the dark ages of no internet, you had to do something R E A L L Y spectacular to garner any sort of attention. Now all you need is a MySpace account.

Maybe it's because I want to reconnect with my friends. You know, the friends you only speak with on MSN. The friends of whom you know about what's going on in their lives only by their MSN names? But will my friends be interested in what I have to say? What's going on in my life? My opinions?

I hope so. If not, at least I can a few things off my chest.
