Welcome to this, by humble attempt at blogging

How should I begin?

'Welcome to Singing dragons, the Best Blog on Earth' seems somehow presumptuous. 'Welcome to Singing dragons, a reasonably ok attempt at blogging' seems too far in the opposite direction. Maybe 'Welcome to Singing dragons, my new blog' is the right way to do this. It seems neither too bold nor too flamboyant.

Here goes. *ahem*

Welcome to Singing dragons, my new blog. If you are reading this at all, chances are you know me reasonably well. And if you know me reasonably well, then you also know that I am, for the most part, what some people have politely referred to as 'technologically challenged.' But I thought I'd give blogging a shot anyway, because most of what it involves is writing, and that at least has never posed any problems for me.

This blog is exactly what it says in the description: Adventures of a reasonably well-adjusted artist. I will do my best to record the more noteworthy of my experiences on this Earth, mostly related to the various forms of art that I practice: writing, music, and acting. I hope, mainly for your sake, that these tales will be worth reading.

And now, a word about me. My name is Naddie Boyne. Really. Some of you may know me best as XXXXXX, (or sometimes Pigeon, Past, Onion, the Sandwich Bandit, or Sunny) but for the purposes of this blog I am Naddie Boyne. You may be wondering why I chose this name (and if you were not, I am going to tell you anyway). One day I was at my favorite restaurant, Chipotle. I had ordered online, and when I received my bag of food, I could not help but notice that the surely well-intending clerk had misspelled my name rather badly. I am not sure how he got Naddie Boyne, because my actual name is something QUITE different. But there you are. The name stuck, so now, for all intents and purposes, I am Naddie Boyne.

Thank you for reading this. I have a feeling this will be a learning experience for all of us.

Naddie

  1. "Naddie" means "Cherished One Who Needs to Clean Her Room" in ancient Bahrsi. Did you know?
