Hello from the void

No one’s here yet, but that’s on me. I’m writing and publishing this before the site is even live. But when people do show up, it will be nice for them to have something to read.

That’s my thought process, and since I’m the only one here, that makes it okay.

Hellloooooo… [echoing “hello” ricochets through the ether]

Anyone there?

No??

For latecomers, my name is Joseph Apau. An occasional writer by day. An occasional writer by night. This blog captures some of the thoughts I’ll have as I launch my stories here on the internet and eventually out into the real wide physical world. And it will continue to be a place for me to share updates with you, dear reader, as life continues on from the void and into the great beyond.

The scene:

Nothing fancy.

I am writing now from a coffee shop, following in the great tradition of many writers. A latte on one side, a zealously guarded favorite spot to call home, and the words just happening right here, right now, on a digitally rendered word processing document. Just like the storytellers of old.

I’m kidding. They probably didn’t have coffee and latte art yet.

The character(s):

Just me.

Writer. Gamer. TV Watcher. I also like foosball.

The goal:

Make it out of the writerly void!

It’s comfortable and safe, but I should really venture out into the real world with some creative writing. Except I’ve been out in the real world and it’s really quite scary.

On the other, other hand, I’ve also been alone with my thoughts and that can be overwhelming too.

We’ll just have to wing it.
