Well, Monday was an interesting day. My first solo project, The Moonlit Road launched in the morning and I set about promoting it. Well, promoting is a bold word. I actually had a lot of real job work to do so I was only really able to post links on a few Facebook groups and actually got within arm’s length of Twitter to let them know too.

I would say that introductions are in order but I think I always struggle to sound interesting and clever for a few sentences and it never quite works and I get frustrated and go do something else, always having this seed of a great idea in my head for what should be an article to share with my friends and fans, but ends up being something I trick myself out of doing.

So, if you want my origin story, check out one or another of my podcasts, or just hang out for a while and see if you like what you read. (more…)
