I like the idea of blogging, and of self-publishing.
My first blog is set to 18 and over, and can not be monetized. Therefore, I decided to create a blog that was more for a general audience.
I really love my first blog because I can do whatever I want there, but I also wanted to have this Island here where anybody could visit and read material that was more suitable.
The previous blog made about two dollars before they figured out that maybe they didn't want advertising on it. Lol. Ironically, I still see some ads on it when I log in, so I don't know what is going on. So basically, they will advertise to me on an 18 and over blog, but not to anybody else. Is that what they are saying to me? Hard to know. Anyway, Google knows what they are doing, so I won't mess with them. In a way, Google rocks.
Okay, so I figured an Island would be a good image for this blog. I want it to be my little oasis that I can come to and visit, and if anybody else enjoys it, all the better.
I grew up watching Gilligan's Island, so I figured it would be cool to have my own island. Of course, I don't have babes on my island, but maybe someday I will. You never know what can happen in this world.
I guess I will have to draw a picture of my island and post it. I'll do that later.
However, if you do want to see my 18 and over blog, it is called 'David Lovins 67's Underground Emporium'. I really deal with the dungeon issues of the mind there, haha.
This blog will be more user-friendly, and above ground. It will be at sea-level.
I decided that I would only work on this blog at the cafe, and do my other one at home. That sounds workable for me.
Fun to be two different entities on the web. I also decided that I would only use my Dirk Wampaflash facebook account at the cafe, so I can escape the mess of my regular account for a while.
So, I am Dirk Wampaflash on Clone Wars Adventures. This will be a blog that friends of mine on that game can visit if they like, and add comments.
This blog will be rated G to PG-13. That means I will not put any nudity on this blog either from artwork or photographs. Also, I will limit my use of dirty, filthy swearing and profanity, lol.
Hard to think with the background chatter sometimes. A guy doesn't know where he can get a color copy, so now he is obtaining help from one of the cafe patrons, who is making a call for him. Such a pain in the ass.
Here is a picture of my island at the cafe at full power. I've got a laptop, portable PS1, and a flat screen monitor. All this is easily transportable from my art studio to the cafe. I also bring a digital camera, so it is also my portable video studio. I am now beginning to make videos right here at the cafe. Fun, huh? I think so. I have an interest in stop-motion animation, and for what I want to do, it is easy to do here. Today, I brought an army man, and a vintage Barbie doll, so I will do something with them, and animate the sequence, and lay in the sound right here. Cool that I can do all that here.
One thing that I love about blogging is that the entries can be edited later, or annotated. I also love the self-publishing aspect.
So welcome to David's Island. I hope you like it. If not, nothing I can do about it anyway.
( Gee, I wonder if bots or real people will eventually read this blog? Only time will tell. )
