What is This Nonsense?

...Or, more accurately, what will be this nonsense? What are my goals? Surely I must have one if I desire to post a blog on the Internet, right?

Perhaps I'm getting ahead of myself.

You can call me Dreamnorn (my screen name) or Avalon (my first name). I'm sure the "About Me" subsection might have caused you to raise an eyebrow, but I can guarantee that I'm not a dragon (although that would be epic). It's just that dragons are extremely cool, so referring to myself as one makes me feel awesome even though I'm certainly not anything remotely close. In actuality, I am but a humble a writer who attends OCHSA. As of this post, I'm a junior.

Boy, someday I'm going to look back at the tone of this post and laugh. Meanwhile...

This blog's quest is to convey observations, opinions, and recommendations based on deep truths that I've uncovered over the course of my not-quite career as a creative writer. I may not be published outside of the great and glorious Interwebz yet, but through years of hardcore observational research, I've become somewhat genre savvy. I've discovered several trends that I would love to bring to light, discuss why they're so effective in their given mediums, and attempt to aid writers by providing prompts based on the subject of each post.

Why am I doing this piece-by-piece in a blogging format? There's too much to cover. And believe me, if everything was forced upon you at once, you might just go mad from the revelation. I know that if I suddenly had a "eureka" moment about every trope and trend in literature at the same time, my mind would have --

KRAKOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

...Yeah. That.

So, ultimately, those are my plans for this little blog. I hope that you'll enjoy all the wisdom drivel I'll have to share. Hasta la vista, bloggers!
