katyzzz blogging career continues
August 10th 2008 05:05
Very early in the peace, contrary to expectations, I decided I was not likely to ever make any money from this exercise, but I lived in hope.
I thought about what I was doing and what I was trying to do and what else was going on in my life and I had to come to the conclusion, not a lot, but that was no good reason for continuing without some purpose, but I did like playing around with MS Paint and that as quickly as possible, after all I was not trying to produce great masterpieces but I wanted to address the matter of Alzheimer's and what could be done about it and at the same time encourage the elderly to become computer literate and join with the rest of the world irrespective of their distinct lack of desire to do any such thing.
There was yet another problem, without the elderly being computer literate and unlikely to ever look at blogs what chance did I have of reaching them with the message I had to give, it very soon became apparent that I would have to try a different approach.
I had rather abandoned the idea of reaching them but thought that I had some chance of reaching them through their families.
It also occurred to me that it was not JUST the elderly who needed to use their brains more, and in understanding the brain they needed to understand their bodies, and it would be good if they, in fact, used their brains more and why not by trying some of my type of art, readily accessible with free programs and achievable just by having a play.
Not many, if any, were impressed and it was not long before I fell out with my fellow bloggers. They love to swear you see, competitively and repetitiously, at the same time giving themselves pats on the backs for their writing skills, and freedom of expression, not to express opinions but to swear with gay abandon.
It was all very boring, their not showing they had the slightest idea about free speech, claiming censorship at every turn and continuing with their boring tirades, no doubt they thought my contributions were boring too, but at least I did not swear my way through mine which would have demonstrated a poverty of vocabulary.
Outcast I was and would ever be, although every now and again I'd meet a friendly enough soul, but it was generally not long before their psychotic and psychopathic tendencies came into full focus.
But continue on I did, and I'm pleased to say that on whole the swearing tendency has declined. This is much more pleasant.
My first blogs are still there, but they are rather hard to find nowadays and any thoughts of collecting a fine body of work which would keep me in royalties forever have bitten the dust.
Looking back it seems that it was not look before I made a large switch to Paint.Net but I continued to use MS Paint as well from time to time and I must admit I have been rather remiss
at looking after those trying their best with MS Paint, but they need not be good at it to derive some benefit.
I was soon putting up posts about the brain and body, the liver, the respiratory system the blood and looking back I can see that I attracted far more visitors then. Orble has changed considerably in the almost two years I've been here and so have I, if you look back to November, 2006 you'll see some of those medical posts, and for those with the inclination you should enjoy them.
But that is all for now, I'll contine to report about my blogging career, thank heaven my other careers have been more successful.
Although I have often demonstrated a lack of concern for money, which I continue to demonstrate here, at other times I have been quite fond of it really.
More on my career later.
