What Am I Doing?

When I first starting writing in this blog, my original intention was to craft a science blog. I made a feeble attempt, and then this fell to the wayside. I suffered from having a large diversity of interests, wanting to write more introspectively, and feeling overly insecure that I would not write anything of actual quality. So this page, like many other forgotten dreams, lay dormant most of the time with occasional post when I felt inspired. As for me, I missed writing, but I was frozen by own fears and insecurities.

 Now I am a PhD student and I have a thesis looming ahead of me. A task that will require a great deal of writing and most days feels impossible. So I am returning to my other childhood passion. I am returning to writing. It has often been said that the key to writing well is writing often and realizing that most of what one produces will be terrible. So I have decided to write. This will not be a themed blog. I will occasionally write about my life and sometimes my ideas. Perhaps there will be the occasional science article, but mostly I am writing because it makes me happy. Perhaps something of worth may come out as well. Time will tell.
