Well, nine years after my first attempt at a “blog”, I’m back, baby. And this time, I’m not posting inconsequential ramblings about what I ate at McDonald’s (way too much) or uploading blurry pictures of vanity license plates that I took with a crappy “digital” camera that had an actual floppy disk inside.
No, this time it’s different. This time, it’s a real “blog”. Only like my girlfriend, I really don’t like the word “blog”.
“But Grant,” you say, already seizing an opening, “there’s a 371 pixel tall image of the word ‘blog’ right over there.”
Well, I don’t really know what to say to that.
Just the thing you want to hear from a guy who writes for a living, right?
So this will be the place where I blog. From which I blog? I don’t know. It will be about video games. It will be about politics. It will be about all kinds of things.
But mostly, it’s about time.
BAM! That’s right. I get paid to do this, people.
Elsewhere on this site, I will be uploading the entire original script (with accompanying VO) of Space Siege. If you’re reading this blog, you probably know all about my tortured history with that game. I will be posting other samples of my work from the video game industry, as well.
I may, from time to time, post “reviews” of things such as video games, movies, TV shows, new brands of aspartame-sweetened colas, etc. I’ve already made the rollover images for a “reviews” section, so I might as well stick to that.
Elsewhere, I will post longform things that shall not be called “rants”, because I hate that word, too. That will be called the “opinions” section. This “blog” section — the length of this post notwithstanding — will usually be for shorter burst transmissions.
I look forward to seeing you again. Thanks for stopping by.
