I don't have the slightest idea what I'm doing as a blogger. But here's what I know. I'm going to get good at it. Why? Because I'm sick of not being good at it. That's why. I want to share myself generously in a way that has meaning for others and stop hiding behind the "I'm going to wait until I'm the world's best blogger before I start blogging" nonsense that stops me and a lot of other people from having the fun of figuring out how to do something they've always dreamt of doing.

But here's the grim reality: for the moment, this blog may suck. I apologize for that if that's the case. It also may not suck, which would be awesome. But I'm not really in control of that yet. I haven't learned the ropes.

I encourage you to check back periodically, because I'm going to continue working on this until I create something that has value to you (not necessarily you, Mr. Critic McSkeptical: if you're not inclined to find value in it, I'm probably not going to be able to reach you. I'm talking to you, Mr. Guy-who's-looking-for-what-I'm-sending-out and Ms. Hmm Tell-me-more). In the end, I aspire to make this something you'll want to check in on from time to time to see what's new. But that's for later. Now? It's just time to begin.

Who knows what'll happen next? Fun.

In the meantime, I'm going to have to go ahead and suck...until I don't. That's the essence of beginnering and it's what makes it so powerful: you get to actually do what you want while you're figuring it out!

Hold on for the ride. It may be bumpy...
