The Daunting First Post


All was well in my household. I had pulled up a chair and my laptop rested comfortably in lap. I was typing up a short story about Lycanthropes (werewolves, for you who don't know what that word means) and it was going along swimmingly. Until I had a severe and sudden case of writer's block. I have no idea how it came to be, but the creative juices stopped and so did my typing.
Before I started to sob and wallow in self-pity, I checked my favourite blogger's website and jumped for joy at the sight of a new post. There, I spotted a button...
This button, this thing, which has in fact brought me to create this blog of sorts, was intriguing to say the least. It glowed abnormally, (not really) it placed me in a hypnotizing trance (not really) and forced me to write this first piece.

As an unprofessional writer, I felt that this blog could maybe my ticket to something bigger. Thus, me tapping away on my keyboard, a mug of water next to me and some sort of possum glaring at me through the window.

Here, O Wise Blog Reader- that is going to be your name from now on. You'll love it, I swear- I will chat about things, randomly, but mostly about books and movies. Mostly books though, since I don't go out a lot.

Now that things are official, I would love for you to address me as Lupin. Why, you may ask? Lupin means wolf... And my favourite 'Harry Potter' character's name is Lupin. Okay, I realize you need to go. But I'll let you go now, after this, really this time. Read all of this WHOLE entire post in a posh, Britain accent. It sounds rather hilarious.
Until next time,
                       Lupin.
