Great Expectations, House of Leaves, the Writer's Market, and Freelancing

     Quite a few things have happened since I published my last blog post on Friday. I reached the one hundred page mark in Great Expectations by Charles Dickens; I got through half of House of Leaves; and I have decided that I am going to pursue a career as a freelance writer.
     You can expect a post on Great Expectations by the 2nd of October and a post on House of Leaves soon after. I have always found it difficult to read two books at once. I am always getting confused if I try to read more than one novel at a time. For your sake and mine, dear reader, I will not be rushing through these books but I will be pacing myself, and these are the projected dates that I will be done reading the novels. I want to write about the books accurately and in a way that you will get a clear picture of what I have read and how I feel about each book. In order to become a better writer, I must learn the art of functional writing and I must start somewhere, so why not here?
      Also, I am hoping to branch out in the future and post here more than once a week as I had originally planned. I want to have plenty of things for you to read. If I am not posting more than once or twice a week, I at least want to post long articles. Short posts are good. Long posts are better. In order to branch out to other reaches of the internet, I will be befriending the writers of other blogs that are strictly about books and/or writing. This is not an easy task for me to accomplish due to the fact I am the most socially awkward person in existence, but do it I shall. I want to make myself proud and I want you all to be proud of me. At some point I want to do guest writing for blogs as well and have others do guest writing on my blog.
The more the merrier.

So long for now readers!
