Let me be the first to say Happy New Year to all you splendid Voxers and Vox-vistors!*
It's tricky to resume something as strenuous and dehydrating as blogging after you've had a break, but I've finally decided to take the advice my dad once gave me: if you want to do something, you should do it. An example: if you're a wannabe novelist and your goal is to get published, you should start by getting something - anything - published by someone - anyone. Write a story about a magic flannel, print three copies, and throw them into the open window of a family car at some traffic lights. That way, you begin to carve a thin 'groove' in the vinyl of reality, into which your subsequent circumstances and intentions will begin to slip, thus cutting the groove deeper, and before you know it, you are Jeffrey Archer!
A less frightening example might be: if you want to blog regularly in 2009, but you can't get into it because you have literally nothing to say about Barack Obama, you should start by just writing a small amount of rubbish about not much at all.
Voila!
Let the floodgates open!
See you in April, probably.
* the first this afternoon.
