Gus Van Horn Turns Two!

Wednesday, October 25, 2006

History repeats itself! As on my first blogiversary, I find myself tired -- I was working until 3:00 a.m. last night. -- and not really in the mood to write.

But I do very much like the sentiment I expressed last year, so I will express it again:

Today, I will simply celebrate my blog's first birthday by thanking all the wonderful people I have met in the process of maintaining my own web log and following those of my fellow bloggers. Although I enjoy writing in and of itself, the friendships I have made along the way have made this pastime all the more enjoyable!
I started this blog for many reasons, but I did not see it as a social undertaking. I saw this blog primarily as as a way to get myself into the habit of writing regularly and to launch my career as a social and political commentator.

But as it turns out, the many new friends and supporters I have gained along the way have been by far the greatest boon this blog has given me. It has also helped me as a writer to remember that the kind of writing I want to do, although it is a solitary activity, is ultimately a social undertaking. For both of these things, I thank each of you.
