Check Point: What Do People Want Me to Write About?



Look, I realize that a lot of people click thru this blog.

Some stay for a few seconds, some for a few minutes, and some for longer.

Some may be visiting that I may never even know about at all.

Some freak me out as I have said, because they always visit, but never say anything.

I can write on any topic, but I'm still trying to gauge the audience. 

In other words, for this blog, I am willing to subsume my needs for expression to the needs of  the audience and what they want to hear because, after all, I would not be here were it not for the Scambloggers.

For example, I can tell more of my real life Law School experiences, or tell them in a fictionalized and exaggerated way. 

Or I can tell more stories about failed job interviews with the JD on the resume.

Or I can go off into random jingles and fiction about any topic whatsoever. 

Or do banjo stuff.

Or write Sci-Fi.

Or keep a diary and tell about how my life is going. 

I say all this because I want to find a common thread. I mean, I really do enjoy or at least find interesting, writing about a greedy and wealthy man that ends up getting what he deserves by burning in a screaming hell, but maybe not too many other people enjoy that sort of stuff, and would want to read about it.

Or, to say describe it another way: I once worked with a painterguy who said, and with confidence, that jazz was all "Garbage". He meant it, and he was my boss, and I had to turn the jazz off the radio. 

So I don't want to be figuratively boring everybody with jazz. 


So any feedback is helpful.

At this point, my blog is getting very built up with posts (almost 100 I think by now) and hard to navigate.

I need to organize, and to stop putting up new posts that maybe no one is interested in, and that bury the old posts. As I mentioned, I have enough to little story ideas to finish up, either on the blog or on my PC in Word, and which will keep me busy for a while already. 


New little premises or scenarios flit through my mind every day, but I don't have to write them down here on the blog. 

So let me know. I'm actually pretty easy to deal with. I really don't go or run too deep intellectually,  and my heart is always on my sleeve.
