You can follow me on Twitter. I also go by Sol Invictus and I write for Hellmode. |
I’ve been considering a ‘daily blog’ of sorts on Hellforge, in addition to all the daily news that I usually post. I must admit that it is not without some trepidation that I’ve decided to go ahead and do it.
While it’s easy enough to write a blog, coming up with the titles is in itself a problematic little process that I often spend far too much time obsessing over when I could just as easily be writing a new blog or covering some other news.
A few questions remain: In addition to being a daily sort of thing, should it have a proper prefix with a description of what I’m writing about, e.g. “Epic Drop: Wolfenstein gets bad reviews, free DLCs for Dawn of War II and Battlefield 2” or should I just keep it short and snappy?
Keeping it short and snappy and probably vague seems like a grand idea (and akin to what Penny Arcade tends to do) but yet another issue arises: will people click on the topic to find out what it’s about? Ah, I suppose they’ll click on it anyway since it is a part of Hellforge, and I can always tweet about it. It’s not as if I don’t have five to ten thousand daily readers.
Hey, problem solved!
