How do you do it?

How do you blog?

It's a question I've put way too much thought into these days, but I'm genuinely curious as to the patterns of writing that people have.

Are you personal, and not just in that LiveJournal sort of way? Humorous? Strictly news/editorial-influenced? Or business, in that "hey check out my ______!" sort of way, promoting your zines or band?

I primarily ask because as I sift through my own favorite blogs (that I read) I realize that all my favorites are a mix of business and personal. I'll browse a lot through a week's worth of reading (and I read a lot during the day when not writing/doing work), but there are only a few that I consistently read every day/update, the ones that are a mixed style.

Huh?

I recently was sent a link to a job posting online, for a locally based heavy metal news site/networking hub.

And now, even though when I was like 14 I made fun of heavy metal kids all the time and found myself alarmingly comfortable listening to nothing by Dave Smalley's bands over and over, I'll probably be doing a weekly column at this site.

I wonder how many times I can write about Disfear, Iced Earth, or the one time I saw Metallica when I was a kid before I get found out for not being very metal at all.

HOORAY FOR ADVENTURE!

Vote for my site, Late Night Wallflower (OK, technically "the site I write for sometimes that isn't actually MINE per se") so that we can finally fee loved.

Late Night Wallflower, started by Alfie, Elona, and Matt P has been in existance for over a year. We've managed to get some awesome stuff done since then, including interview with (NON-DEAD) Ian McKaye, Daryl Jennifer, Jeff from Modern Life Is War, photographer Chrissy Piper, reports on Different Kind Of Dude fest and THE Fest, as well as a ton of other shit.

Maybe I'll Blog a Little

Dearest Blog,

Hi! How are you? Fine, I hope. Sorry I haven't been blogging lately. I've been busy doing other stuff. But I am all excited for Halloween and everything. I've been trying to read some scary stories, listen to scary sounds and stuff, you know, to get in the mood. I heard there is like pumpkin AIDS or something that is killing all the pumpkins, and I think that's really sad. Something must be done or the whole holiday will be ruined.

Well, blog, I've got to make some spaghetti or something now. Or maybe multi-colored rotini! Mmmm.

Best,
Todd
