Ceci n'est pas un blog

This isn't a blog.

Oh, I know it looks like a blog, but you have to admit it doesn't act like one.

If I'm very generous, I could say it's pretending to be a blog, but a blog implies an active blogger, and none can accuse me of that.

This is a placeholder. A 'temporary' place where I can experiment and be playful. There are things I would like to post, things I would like to build a website around - and normally I'd be really excited by the 'building a website around' process before I've created any actual content. Then I get dispirited and abandon the whole project.

So before I buy domains, Wordpress accounts and host space, then spend absolutely ages getting everything to look just perfect I shall splash around in the shallows here sharing bits and pieces of opinion, poetry and fiction, while I fiddle with something I've had at the back of my mind for a very long time.

Does that sound like a plan to you?
