We first meet our hero…
So, what kind of guy decides to call himself “Dead Charming” you ask? Well, let me introduce myself, for this exercise in reciprocal anonymity I’ll just go by DC. I’m an Aries born in the year of the Dragon and I don’t put much stock in astrology. (I DO put stock in fortune cookies, those things NEVER lie!)
Why am I writing this? Well, I was writing another blog and lost my anonymity. While that might not seem like a bad thing, I found it terminal to my ability to write honestly. And really, no matter how good the mask is, if you can’t be honest at the core, your writing will suck.
Thankfully, the internet offers an almost infinite palate of different shades of anonymity. So here I am, starting again from the beginning.
Oddly enough, life is a fluid path and things change far more than I would have ever believed since the last time I started out on a new beginning. From my faith to my tastes in music/food/clothes to my daily routine, everything is different from just a few months ago. Sometimes in very small ways, sometimes in HUGE ways, but everything has changed somehow.
While I might re-use some elements of my old blog in the future once I feel safely distant from that persona, so much has changed that I promise that 95% of my content will be “all new” material.
Hopefully, this time around I’ll post consistently. I won’t promise daily, but I’d like to be close to that. I travel a lot, and I have plenty of time to write, so I’m going to try to have a bit of a backlog ready to post on those days when I don’t get a chance to string two words together.
Anyway, I’ll leave you with the best fortune cookie message I’ve ever received:
“Never argue with an Idiot. He will only drag you down to his level and then defeat you with experience.”
