Question of Intent July 12, 2008

Now, just so you know, I am by no means an expert on books.
True, I read a lot, more than most do at my age.
There are books that I like, and sometimes books that I do not.
and books that I refuse to read at all, or even acknowledge as literature….which is probably bad, and I should probably at least consider some of these books to be decent….but none of them have been from my experience, and why put myself through the same torture?
anyway. i digress.
Question of Intent? well, my intent is simply to have someplace to babble incessantly about books and the lessons i get from them.
and to let you know what book i’m reading next, should you care to join my quest for fantastic books (of which I have found many)

i am probably too young to be reviewing books with any sort of authority, but thats okay.
maybe someone out there will read what i write and take it to heart, and maybe someone will feel the things i have felt and recognize the books i recognize as great.

my name? does it matter?
i am but a character in this saga we call life.
a background character at that.
don’t bother worrying about trivialities like that.
is trivialities a word?
it is now. i don’t think it matters either way.

warning: i talk too much.
i think i have a condition, because once i sit down to the computer i feel compelled to write, and not stop.

anyway, i hope you’ll stick around and look at my clever jokes and find them at least slightly amusing, and look at my attempt to be intellectual and give me credit for trying in a time when no one else seems to be, and everyone else seems to be content with being strung along in blissful ignorance of anything true or honest.

i will also probably end up talking about other sorts of media.
the news. webcomics. music. television. perhaps magazines, if i ever find time to read them.
oh, and movies. a select few movies qualify as actually “great” and on par, in my mind, with books, as far as intellect required to understand and enjoy them.

but we’ll get to that later.
i just want you to know that i’m here, i’m alive.
and i plan to write.

i am reader. hear me roar.

 

hah. haha. CHEESY.

 

EDIT: i also despise having to capitalize my I’s so i won’t do it that often.
because I really like to capitalize random words, to emphasize them.
because i write how i talk…i think? usually, anyway.
so if i want to emphasize the word i, then how do you know i’m emphasizing it if it looks the same as all the others?
oh sure you can put it in bold or italics, but that takes too much time and effort.
i just wanted to let you know, so i don’t have grammar hounds after me for it.
though i’m just as psycho abuot grammar…just not about proper capitalization.
i’ll shut up now. this is all just white noise, really.

i’ll post some real things soon.
