What is InvisibastardDotCom?

Posted on November 15th, 2007 in self-doubt by invisibastard

This is a tough question. I will take the opportunity of having no readers to publicly spell out my thinking and the flaws involved. I run a couple of websites. They get bogged down in my concept of perfectionism. I do nothing with them for vast amounts of time simply because I feel whatever I do will not meet my expectations. It is better to wait for the day when I magically meet them. Then something will happen!

I originally envisioned this site as a community site. A place where people could post their writing, photos, artwork, whatever and get support from likeminded people. Unfortunately, my choice of Wordpress may not have been the best choice for this platform. I like working with Wordpress though, so my concept of what this site could be has shifted. I’m going to go against conventional wisdom by using a very conventional concept: “It is what it is”.

I commit for the next few months to just throw anything at the wall here, and see if anything sticks. I may gain two loyal readers. I might create a community. I might fail silently and spectacularly, but at least I will have tried. One thing I will do is be very honest in my writing, even if it pains me.

Now go buy some absinthe or coffee!
