A book lies open on the table, pages blank like fresh snowfall. Ink spills like blood across the crisp cream pages. An invisible hand scrawls lightning fast. Patterns of loops and lines inscribed in the blink of an eye. Letters forming words, words forming sentences. A story beginning to unfold, told in ink black as night…

This is that story. I hope you enjoyed that little intro snippet of fiction as much as I enjoyed writing it.

What is this? This is only the beginning of something, if I can follow through on it. Through Nanowrimo I proved to myself that given the right motivator, I can write something every single day for a month. And I thought to myself….why stop at a month?

I’ve tried blogs in the past — lost count of how many times in fact. But this is different. This is a journal, almost. A collection of things, created by me or simply found. Dug from all corners of the fantastic maze that is the Internet. This is Frenetic Scribblings.

Maybe one will evolve over time but I won’t set a formula for what I’m going to put in this. Because I know I’ll have enough difficulty just doing it every day. There will be a little bit of fiction. A little bit of not. Quotations (I do so love them!), images and music that speak to me at the time. A slice of life, as it were.

Hopefully some of you out there will enjoy my often inane, sometimes insane ramblings. Regardless, writing every day will be good practice.

Until tommorow!
