You sit back at your computer and stare disapprovingly at the blinking cursor. It silently mocks you as it remains stationary at the start of the page, the place where it’s rested for far too long now. All this time, you’ve been contemplating how to go about starting this blog, but the answer has been eluding you. You may have several blogs all over the internet, but none of them were strictly personal like this. They were just shitty little side projects you did when you were bored. This however…well it was just different.

You’ve seen how some of the others interact, and although you’d never admit it, it makes you nervous to message any of them, they’re all so involved with one another and why would they want your mute ass loitering around. The thought of actually meeting up with anyone, face-to-face, has you shying away from any contact at all. It’s always so awkward trying to have a conversation in person.

With a barely concealed sigh, you make up your mind and settle your hands over the keys to begin typing:
