So.
So I’ve been doing the whole writing thing for a while now, and just the other day was very surprised to receive a friend request on Facebook from a stranger who, in his email, said that he’d encountered some of my work online and really liked it. Which was tremendously flattering, of course, but also led me into a somewhat absurd and lengthy reflection on whether or not to “friend” someone I don’t know at all. I mean, I’m one of those people who really just uses Facebook to maintain connections with people I actually know or have known, and it makes me a little leery to step outside that. But, at the same time, I think it’s clear that, if I’m going to continue to be serious as a writer — which, of course, is my intent — I need something.
So, here it is.
I’m afraid this is going to be a slow endeavor, but the initial parts (getting the domain, setting up email, writing this first post so it’s not just the silly WordPress greeting that the hordes of people I’m sure will be stampeding to get here will see) are finished. I’ll continue building this, posting when I have some time, adding links, and so forth as I can. Meanwhile, if you’d like to contact me, please feel free to do so via email: pete [at] petepazmino.com.
