Introspection, and an Announcement

At what point does your internet fame drown out your interaction with your readers and becomes more about your readers' interaction with each other?

I find that on popular posts, the interaction is no longer between writer and reader, but between the readers themselves...the writer no longer matters as an interacting being, but merely a producer of content to be debated among yourselves...

While fame seems like something desirable, I think I'd be happiest with a small following of regular commenters that I could interact with.

Also, I should probably let my Blogger pals know that I've started a new blog.  Hey, guys, I started a new blog! You can find me at limeokapi.wordpress.com! It's going to be more streamlined and stuff, and probably have more...organized posts.

Which means that this blog gets to be informal.  Yay!  Don't worry, though, my storytelling bit is still going to happen on a regular basis.

Starting Fresh

To those of you who have followed me from elsewhere, welcome!  This blog may not be what you're used to seeing from me.  This is a good thing.  Trust me.

Those of you just joining the party are welcome too.  In fact, I'm really excited that you're here.  Why? Because it's fun to meet new people, that's why. 

This is the first post in a new blog.  There are about a billiongazillion possibilities to what I could do here.  Fortunately, I've already decided.

This blog will be a storytelling blog. 

I'm super excited about it.  I'm going to try to tell you about my life through stories (often illustrated) that will have a positive or humorous spin.  I will be using a manual pottery wheel to spin the stories, so they may not always come out perfectly...I fully expect a few misshapen tales. 

I still have a lot of work to do--the site itself needs some TLC--but I plan on investing a good bit of time into getting this blog ship-shape. 

So hang on to your hats, people!  This place is about to be amazing.
