This will be the last of my blogs for my Digital Story Telling class, but I realize now that blogging will be playing a big role in my future.
Why?
I'll give you three good reasons.
1.) Blogging is easy. I can't think of an easier way to keep a digital log of my progress as a writer and artist. Both BlogSpot and Wordpress are excellent sites with a number of intuitive tools for digitalizing creativity, and I don't plan on stopping any time soon.
2.) Blogging is fun. It's one thing to post a blurb on Facebook or Twitter, but blogging is something else. Something..."other." It is at once personal and public, and the creativity and flexibility it grants the user is presently unmatched (IMHO) by any other player on the Social Network scene.
3.) Blogging is fast. It takes no time at all to blog a story, personal experience, or project. In the time it takes me to boil a pot of oatmeal, I can share my morning's novel progression with friends, family, and anyone else who might care!
It was a joy and a privilege to work with you all in this class. I admire each of your strengths as story tellers, and I wish you all nothing but the best in your future endeavors. You will be hearing more from me...I believe that with certainty. I am more certain of my life goals now than I have ever been. My first order of business will be to digitalize my children's book. Then, I will get a website up and running on Wordpress. A good friend of mine has promised to give me a crash course in Photoshop, and I will apply the skills he teaches me to getting a weekly comic strip up and running. All this in addition to finishing my novel will ensure that my hands are always full...better full than empty!
Thanks for a great semester, Professor Schutze. Have a great holiday.
