A good place to start

 Lots of people have told me that if I want to be a journalist (which I do), I should start a blog. It's a way of getting stuff published without anybody having to like me or my writing, which is tragically quite helpful. This is nothing like the 'vlogs', as they are at least trying to entertain people (the next person who asks me 'Was that meant to be funny?'....), this is purely to write, and write a lot. And before someone asks, there will probably be more. Soon.

 The first problem that is encountered is the slight drawback that I have nothing to say. I have a terrible habit of valuing others' opinions over my own, which leads me to losing most argument. Either that or I'm wrong practically all of the time, which is possible.

 As the only people who will read this, and there may not be many, will be people who already know me, there is little-to-no point in telling you anything about myself. Even then, I would probably not be putting up any particularly private facts about myself, baring in mind that this is available to anyone who can see my public self, rather than my private self. If you don't get that reference, you really need to brush up on your Rogers' Concentric Circle model. Alternatively, you could not take Comms for A level like I did. Shut up, it's actually quite fun.

 There is literally no point in writing any more, as I still don't have anything to say, but this seems like a good place to start.
