With “Strange New Places” gone, it begs the question, “What would you say…you do here?” Ok, kind of rude, but I’m glad you asked. For now, it’s still music. No more classic album reviews. Yes more playlists. Lots and lots of playlists. Let me introduce you to…

Playlistology

Look, I just really like making playlists, y’all. And I get it. You’re a busy, young 20-something. You’re doing AI’s, you’re slappin’ fives. You don’t have the time to listen to music that some middle-aged woman picked for you. …that’s fine. No, yeah, I’m fine. No, I’m not crying, there’s just some sawdust in my eye. Is it sawdusty in here?

But yeah, I’m going to be posting playlists here, even if I’m the only one listening to them. Do me a favor though? If you do listen to one, or even if you don’t, but you know, you like one or two of the artists on there, just let me know. Just a little something so that I don’t feel like I’m posting to the void.

Blog Post Title Two

It all begins with an idea.

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.

Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.
