So here i am again, but oh oh ... what do I say now ??

Suddenly, the pressure is on - I've taken the plunge - posted my first blog, so far so good - but what's next !

What if I can't come up with anything interesting, cool, EDGY ! Do bloggers get writers block ?

The questions continue ... can I come up with the time/space to do this every day ? Can I think of something to say every day ? Do I have to do it every day ?

Have I made a commitment - And who to ? Well myself of course, coz I'm doing this for me - but that leads to still more questions  .... who do I share this blog with ? If it's just for me should I make it private - but somehow that doesn't feel right. So who then - my friends & family ? The wider world - & does that mean I'm discovering my inner exhibitionist ? Do I really want all my friends finding out about the secret inner workings of my-far from average-mind ?

The journey continues . . . .

I've spread my wings
I've spread my wings
The edge of what you ask? The list is long ...
    edge of reason
    edge of darkness
    edge of desire
  
    beyond blue
    beneath the radar
    below the poverty line
  
    edge of despair
                                                                edge of society
                                                                cutting edge
                                                                on the brink . . .

And so I've spread my wings & started to fly . . . to my list of accomplishments I can now add blogger. Imagination is running riot - creative juices flow. I see myself sitting in a funky cafe, uber cool laptop in front of me - the next Lily Brett, Bridget Jones . . . but no - me and my PC are deskbound, chairbound, housebound.
I however have taken a step into the new, the unknown - where will this journey take me ? Time alone will tell ...
