A beginning

Hello there,

I expect you are wondering why you should read about the world from my point of view. That is, you already have your own point of view, and there are people who gladly thrust their point of view down your throat as you innocently listen to the radio, but why should you trouble yourself to read this blog and discover mine? The simple answer is that you shouldn't. This blog exists primarily to serve my need for a workbook in which to practice writing. Therefore unless you are my wife/mum/future employer (or hopefully not), now might be a good time to find something better to read.

So then, this blog exists to remain unread. I do sometimes wonder if it may become widely read - should I become successful, famous, or infamous. I fear then that I may replace this initial post with something less modest.

Bye for now,

Nic
