Hey everyone, I'm new to Speakeasy and this seems like the best place to begin. (The introduction area seemed to be somewhat inaccessible.) I've been writing creatively for the past 3 years, but I haven't had the chance to have an audience. As a self-taught student, I find it extremely hard to get any attention for my writings. (I hope some of you can sympathize with me.)
I have had two creative weblogs on the internet, the subtle pen being the first (from 2003 to 2006), and I, Revolutionary! being the second (from 2006 to present).
the subtle pen was where I really began to write. I learned who I was as a human and a lover, and I also learned about the way the mind (my mind) really works. From a teen’s standpoint, the subtle pen is a chronicle of love and angst, and from an adult’s standpoint, the subtle pen is an introspective look into the teenage psyche. I recommend starting with that weblog.
I, Revolutionary! is an extension of the subtle pen in form only: It is much more mature and focused. I started it early 2006, right around my 20th birthday, so it not only marked a significant point in my life as a grow child, but a significant point in my development as a writer and an individual. The low post count is due to two things—school and writer’s block. Since out of school, I have been writing more often (usually every few days), and I am focusing more on fiction and where my imagination can lead me and my readers. Once you’ve gotten a feel for my style, I, Revolutionary! would be a good place to start reading.
So there it is, everything I’ve written. I’m giving it to you, fellow writers, to take it and do what you will. I would love feedback, but after three years, I’ve found that it is a lot harder to find good feedback than it is to spill yourself out onto (digital) paper. Comment criticize, or leave it lay. Thank you for your time and consideration.
