This
month I am determined to stay positive.
It's
too easy to be negative on the internet. There are whole forums and
communities basically dedicated to bitching and moaning, which is
fine and therapeutic in its place but it's also exhausting. It's not
like I don't have my reasons for being grouchy recently: my landlord
is selling my flat; my favourite game system recently died and took
my favourite fantasy world with it; the comicbook and wrestling
industries are as bizarrely inconsistently managed as ever; and we
still have a Conservative government seemingly dedicated to disposing
of the surplus population.
And
I'm just tired of being annoyed. It's my birthday this month and I
want to spend some time celebrating the things I love, the things
that bring me joy.
I
love comics, as ill-managed as the industry often is it's going in a
direction I largely like. Warhammer may be officially dead but my
friends and I are cobbling together our own continuation in The Age
Of Rebuilding, which is proving absurdly fun to write. I may not
agree with all (or even many) of the WWE's booking decision but
they're finally promoting their women's division with some
dedication.
If
nothing else, a month of writing about what I love instead of what
annoys me would be great self-therapy.
So,
for the next thirty days I will only say only (well, mostly) positive
things on this blog.
