Playing With Nothing
So, I was reading this article over at Ryan Holiday’s website, when I came across the list of things that matter. I realized that I don’t meet a single one of those criteria:
[*] Smart, intelligent people do not read by work. I read my work. I’m deathly afraid of anybody reading it, so nobody knows about this. Simple as that. Can’t even say for certain why I’m writing this now.
[*] I get email from spammers. (Where “spammers” include all institutions of higher education in North America and Dennis Kucinich.)
[*] OH, OH, I do write about non-tech things! But still, 0 readers.
[*] Wow, I also have sucess and interests outside of the internet. That’s the only place I do have sucess.
[*] Flying under the radar? Check.
[*] Yes, people take my suggestions, but not from here.
[*] I hate looking back on what I’ve written. I can’t stand to be in the same room as somebody else who’s reading my work, even if they do so silently.
Oh, 2/3 of blogs have only one RSS subscriber. Me? Zero.
In short, I’m killing this. All of this. If Dress-Stephen doesn’t take off (or even get completed, which it probably won’t), I’m not paying my server bill and damn it all.
