Launch

The problem with blogs is that far too many noteworthy people have far too many eager readers. What I hope to accomplish with this blog then is to give a voice to those who you ignore on the train during your morning commute. The grizzled slackers who smoke on the curb outside of 7-11. The kid with bleached hair and gauges who sits alone during lunch. You know, the people you just don't give a shit about.

Oh. Also, I want you to be that voice too. Frankly, I don't care to prattle on here all by myself. So, I want your fiction, non-fiction, poetry, diatribes, opinions, comments, anecdotes, musings, and limericks.

This blog, for the most part, is experimental. I knew from the outset that I didn't want just another "writing" blog, nor did I want to neglect my own tirades entirely. Much of this blog will follow its theme, and other posts deal with my own struggles at getting my voice heard.

With that being said, I'd like you to take some time out of playing Farmville or whatever the hell else it is that normal people do, and gander at the bar above. You'll notice that it is conveniently structured, not unlike the structure in your own routine life. You might find this semblance of organization comfortable. I find it merely keeps my own convoluted thoughts in check.

I've posted the submission guidelines for the journal. I'm accepting submissions for the first issue with the launch of this blog.
