This should have been my first post, not my third. The one that tells you right away that I am not a writer. I struggle with how to arrange words and thoughts into cohesive sentences. I can't spell, I suck at grammar, and my knowledge of punctuation is very limited. It's very hard work!
I've been working on a — rant/letter/viewpoint/blog — about the switch to digital TV. I refuse to pay for television and so I'm one of millions that will be screwed over when the switch happens. I'm pretty pissed-off about it and I'm trying to articulate the reasons why — and at the same time educate the — public/congress/the President/family/friends — about why.
But, I've written, re-written, added, subtracted, rearranged and mixed it up, and still can't get it to come out simple and powerful. Maybe I need to take my emotion out of it. I'm not sure, but I don't think the blog is going to be something I find myself posting to very often. Writing in my journal is more satisfying (I love the act of writing long-hand), and I don't have to worry about whether or not my audience understands it!
