About
A post a day until I hit 50,000 words. An exercise in speed writing for someone who is normally paragraph-challenged. Sorry if the content sucks. Please send me critiques; I will be very thankful.
Projected Timeline
- Build up a giant base of content. I have hundreds of text files of plans for posts that need to be converted into actual essays. Impetus? I’d just feel dreadfully uncomfortable otherwise. Also just a good idea to checkpoint your mental state every-so-often.
- Organize it all. Point out the posts that others liked the most and mark them as “read me first.” Categorize the rest.
- Move to a once-a-week or otherwise more sustainable timeline. That or stop writing and make another blog after 8 years or so.
Table of Contents, aka: Deciphering Confusing Titles
- Depression — Filler.
- An Essay of Four Parts: How I Would Run the World — Degree of free-will is a function of knowledge.
- Two Parables of Rage — In (rare) praise of emotions.
- Why Blog? — To meet people.
- Plotting for Kisses — Filler.
- Old Friends — My high school forces me to try harder.
- The Bell Jar — Exploration of the Sylvia Plath effect via genetics.
- Tales of Brilliant Scientists — Ignorance expands faster than knowledge, therefore the smartest of us are the most haunted by curiosity.
- Fear of Commitment — Wish I could just pick a career.
