First ACTUAL Post: Writer's block

Well, since people are apparently already viewing this, I guess I should post something other than the original mission briefing thing. Now, this is the challenging thing: I'm not sure which of my completely AWESOME ideas I should use for this, and which ones I should actually turn into ARS videos. (Youtube.com/imAaronRidge; if you don't know, now you know.) It's actually quite the dilemma. So, as a result of my inability to decide what to write about, you're here, reading what is essentially a big paragraph about nothing. Congratulations. However, your reading this does serve a greater purpose: you see, I'm actually just stalling for time.

It's actually a great writer's tip; when you're feeling blocked, write until you're not blocked, anymore. Just useless blather. Whatever you can think of; who cares if it sucks ? Eventually, you'll get through all the crap, and
ta-daaa, something meaningful comes out. Or entertaining, funny, cool... Whatever you're trying to write. This is legit how I get over most of my dry spells; I just force myself to write, until it works. And it does work. I do it all the time with songs, poems and stories. In fact, I do the same thing with making beats.Yep, just force it out until it comes out naturally. Push, and push hard. I suppose it's only appropriate that the process for pushing out a brain-child is similar to giving birth. Enjoy all of the beautiful mental images that come with that sentiment. You know the ones; I won't spoil them for you.

Well, that's all for now. Have fun pushing out those word-babies.
(Darn it, I spoiled one of the mental images, didn't I ?)

Peace In, Peace Out.

Soo, Yeah.

Whaddup, World ? 

Well, I have little else to do this Summer, so I figure why not blog ? I was gunna use my old blog, but it was slightly outdated. By which I mean I just didn't feel like showing the ridiculous time gap between my last post and the next one. Yeah, I have "Aaron Ridge Speaks !" On Youtube, but editing is tiresome. I figure I can do this on a much more consistent basis than that. Not to say that I'm abandoning ARS; on the contrary, I'm expanding it to this blog. Soo, that's the story. This will pretty much be ARS, but you get to imagine my voice, facial expressions, and hand gestures. Yay, imagination !

Enjoy & Spread !
