I'm a little new at this

While I have a degree in English, and thus am not unfamiliar with the principles of writing, I am completely new to the world of blogging. I've seen a couple, but not many, and those I've seen I've never stayed very long to read.

(I think mainly it appeals to the absolutely self-centered aspect of my personality.) So, I'm going to try this out. Whether or not it works depends, I think, on my own determination to see it through, not to mention how much people actually like what I post. So, here goes: drumroll, please....
