Time to Revamp Myself

(Original post date: June 6th, 2011)

Wow, I let time pass by too quickly before I write more posts. It’s almost another month since my last post, which was about my graduation screening… Now my film’s on its festival circuit (well, hopefully) and my summer’s kept busy with volunteer stage managing gigs with local theatre companies.

Honestly I did draft up a post on May 16th that I was very eager to post because it concerned me a great deal. But since it’s so personal, I didn’t want to put it out before it’s ready. And getting it ready is taking a long time. I think I’ve been putting it off because I am dreading dealing with it. It’s hard when the subject of your writing is politically controversial as well as being close to the heart.

Another reason -and I don’t mind if you want to slap me for this, that I’ve been delayed in putting out any writing, is that I finally got a twitter account… Yeah, jumped on the social media bandwagon. For what it’s worth, I don’t know how I feel about it yet. I like that I am up to date with the going-on’s of my favourite musicians, but at the same time it’s like the whole world is throwing their one-cent at you and everything’s revolving too fast for me. I guess I have to start admitting that I am getting OLD. Technology is going to outlive me! That’s why it’s time to update everything me. That means my websites, my resume, my credentials, and my blogs (I’m thinking of starting a new blog to focus specifically on GLBTQ issues) all need a make-over. Gotta start marketing and make a name for myself! God knows it’ll pay off and come in handy one day.

Last but not least, I’ve dedicated my writing time (however little it has dwindled down to) to write a short story based on my hopeless and loveless romantic life. So far it’s at 4 pages, and as I continually to be inspired by what I see, the story is ever evolving into a satisfactory piece of fine writing (at least I think so).

Okay, there you have it! And I thought it was gonna be a quick update… I guess with the next post coming, this one could count as short :P
