So as many of you already can see and have noticed, the posts haven’t come as frequently here lately. I haven’t written up a long Raw review in weeks, much less any other wrestling. Comics have dropped down to reviewing friends’ books. All of this goes back to the major life changes going on.
Marriage.
Child.
EVERYTHING that ripples out from that. Suddenly there’s not enough money. Things we got by without, silly things like a car, insurance, etc are suddenly very much needed and wanted. Plus my days have become work, take care of all needs that a pregnant hormonal wife might have, then maybe I get an hour in between her falling asleep and me falling asleep that I might be able to read and/or write.
All of this makes any blogging a very precious commodity. Sure, I’d love to buy and read every thing from Marvel and DC in two days and review it but then what? I’m out all that money and now that aforementioned money and space is that much less for the upcoming lil’ Hellion. Priorities are being rearranged and reevaluated.
This means I cant follow 600 plus people on Twitter. I could be writing or cleaning or making money instead of getting caught up on what everyone writes. I cant listen to every podcast or watch every video. I cant write about wrestling match by every match or tell you great details about every comic.
I want to write comics, and have my name out there in the books, magazines and comics that you buy. I am trying to draw a web comic and have high hopes for it.
There was a quote I saw long enough back that I’ll have to paraphrase, its easier to destroy than create. I tried to stop being negative after that. But as an addendum, where to fit in reviewing? Its easier to talk about what others have done than to do something yourself, I guess.
Sure, I’ll still review stuff. I love being a mark and use this site as a place to rant and rave about things. And I’ll still do that when I can. I’ll always review books from my friends: Aspen, Grace, Howard, etc.
There will still be posts about random toys and collections and silly things like that.
But if I can I want to write things that matter. I want the little guy to see his father as a great creator, not a reactor.
Thanks for sticking with me in this next evolution of myself and my life. If I’ve upset anyone my apologies, that wasn’t my intent but I have to do what’s right for me and the family. All of the other writers will still be here as often as they like, and I thank them for hanging in there.
Team Hellions Forever.
