I do apologise for the complete absence of any updates over the last two weeks. Unfortunately, while I’m still aspiring, I’m afraid I haven’t really been inspired of late. Additionally, I’ve been busy seeing people and sorting stuff out in order to move back to Norwich. Then there’s been the actual moving and settling in. Now that that’s over, and the search for a part-time job begins, I’m hoping to get The Aspiring Writer back on track. I’m not sure how, however. I feel that some of my entries have been a bit too stuffy, and dangerously close to pretentious. I really need to develop a more naturalistic style. So, hopefully, these changes should be coming in the next couple of weeks, otherwise I might have to accept that perhaps Livejournal was the best place for me to stay.

Henry.

Okay, so it’s been two weeks since my site went up. During that time I’ve had 198 unique visitors, so I’m doing a little better than I expected, even if 173 of those were in the last two days – uncoincidentally the amount of time since the latest issue of the PlotDog Press carnival went up (never underestimate the power of the blog carnival). Hopefully some of these people will stick around for future updates to the site, because there should be plenty more coming. (more…)
