Thinking aloud

So it's been a couple of months since I decided to give this blogging malarkey a serious shot. I set out to write 3 posts a week (12 - 15 a month) and my archive shows me I did a good job back in October but am a bit behind in November (I guess that's holidays for you!)

Excitingly, according to Feedburner I'm saying hello to whole 6 new readers! (All things start somewhere and I really appreciate your subs!)

I'm really enjoying the experience on a few different levels. First off, I've never been much of a diary keeper so it is novel for me to be able to look back and are what kind of things were on my mind and what my immediate reaction was to an event.

Another big thing is (re)learning how to write. As a guy who took an astrophysics degree, worked in banking for 6 years, and is now pedalling his excel skills at a big old internet firm, I have become king of the bullet point. But I love writing, and although it is sometimes a struggle, I think I'm slowly finding my style.

The biggest plus though is the platform that this blog gives me to think aloud. It's such a good way to help organise my thoughts on a topic or to determine exactly why I love a band. I'm hoping that over time this will be supplemented by more feedback from and interaction with you, dear reader ;-)

Anyway, I'll have to up the post rate this coming week if I'm going to keep my promise. I'll try and keep the quality up too!
