Another friggin' blogger???

I know what you are thinking:

"Oh fer crying out loud!?! Another moron with a Blog!?! "

Obviously, the answer is "yes". But actually, I do think I have a pretty good reason for creating a blog! Want to know the reason?

Numerous years ago I used to write for numerous Horror sites and 'zines. I loved being involved with all that hoopla and acting like I was actually somebody whose words and thoughts on the subjects mattered. It was a good time and a good stretch.

But eventually, after receiving many tapes for reviews, many of which were indie films of VERY questionable quality, I found myself burnt on the whole thing. Soon enough I had finally had enough of it all and packed it in.

So, what is one to do???

Well, I started writing for numerous music sites, and eventually started a My Space site for my music dabblings. But then I realized I didn't actually have control of my own stuff. So I decided to start a music fanzine!

Well, after doing the print fanzine for a few years now, and finding myself burnt on that, I wanted to return to something "fun", hoping that would help me find a desire to turn out more of the music fanzines. So, I decided it was time to give a blog a try, one where I could cover Horror films, books, magazines, models, comics, anything I choose. It will be all for fun, with no obligations to ANYBODY!!!

Nope, I will not name the fanzine I do. Those smart folks of you who know of it will figure it out. But otherwise, this is an escape zone for me.

  2. Hahaha!!! I think this one will survive for no other reason than giving me a place to babble about dumbass things I bother babbling to everybody around me about. The music thing feels more like a job than a hobby, and that was by my own doing. But we will see, this just seems like a lot of fun to me.
