The truth is I am an unapologetic disciple of the written word. I am comfortable here, with this medium and on this platform and in this format. I belong here. I am happy to leave all the modern alternatives to others. I like writing and then reading what I have written. And thinking about it. Revising it. Correcting it (although I can be a terrible editor). Sometimes I even print it out...on paper. Or, in a book.
Look, we are not talking about a Gutenberg press here. When I publish to this blog, anyone in the world can read it, instantly. Or not.
But will I miss out on some potential audience? Without doubt.
As I wrote in About this blog, I often write to help me determine how I should think about things. Even sometimes, if I should think about things at all. It really is a journal. So if others read along, great. It is a bonus. But the writing you find here is primarily for myself. If you are reading along, I hope it makes you think as it does for me.
Surely that is a worthy goal for all of us.
