nuclearpengy - writing
At some point, after starting MyEcommerce, I decided to start blogging. I set up a Wordpress site, ran ads and all sorts of plugins but eventually realised all I really cared about was the writing; when Ghost was released I moved across as quickly as I could. Ghost is a beautiful, simple system dedicated to blogging. If you're interested in blogging I highly recommend you give it a try.
This page lists the posts I have written so far. Every so often I read through one of my old posts and feel a little embarressed about my writing style at the time; I guess it's a sign of growth. I don't spend nearly enough time writing but I do look forward to being able to look back at my writing one day and remember what I was thinking or going through at some time in the past.
