The beginning, and the end. 2025 has come to a close, and my writing habits are no different than in 2021 when I first though of creating FIG. Years have passed and I have little to show for it. Yet the ideas continue to percolate. Everyday I dream of a brighter future, reflect on how I would have redone past events, or daydreamed on the immediate machinations of my life. Maybe in 2026 I will finally begin this journey for real. Put pen to paper, and try to expand and share the visions that swim through my imagination. Fiction, political theory, local reviews, lifestyle blogging all appeals to me. Yet I lack the discipline and practice to create some of these larger projects. So, in 2026, I hope to write daily. I will most likely smart out small, and cover whatever topic interest me that day, and from there, I will build. With practice the skill, patience and discipline to focus on larger projects will form. I hope to use this website I started so many years ago to house my musings, and be a living representation of my growth and dedication.
FIG will be used as a repository for this work, and where I post other more specific writings outside of my daily journaling.
