Yesterday, as a response to Nick‘s comment, I wrote that (and I paraphrase here) a blog that I find of value has a “mission for change and/or a desire to motivate others to think/do originally.”
Since then, I’ve been worried that I’m not providing the value I hope to see in others’ work.
Is this a case of an artist not recognizing his own thematic content (like Frank Henenlotter boldly confessed to during a Q&A this summer, after screening Bad Biology to a decently full house during Montreal’s Fantasia festival)? Or am I actually as scattered as I think I am?
Seriously… Comment on this post. Let me know where you think I’ve been going wrong — or, better yet, where I’ve been going right. Let me know what I’m onto that you want to read. Let me know where I’m providing value in your reading… or what value I could be providing you, if I just focused some more. I — and hopefully you, too — will really appreciate this insight, and what will come of it.
As much as I enjoy writing, this blog has never been solely for me. And I want to hear what you have to say.
