I am often shyer on the internet than in real life. There are fewer social cues to let me know when it's safe to contribute, and the web is so full of interesting, well-written content that I end up staring at empty text boxes thinking "I couldn't possibly have anything new to say."
This blog is self-imposed therapy for that kind of thinking. I haven't told anyone about it so I don't need to fear judgement, which is why I don't care about the utter rubbish that's on here. It's just there on the internet, no-one is expecting it to be new or interesting becuase no one reads it. I can write terribly about not much at all and perhaps I'll eventually learn how to find the thoughts and ideas that I manage to have and share in conversation while I'm having the blank-text-box panic.
