A few years ago I started writing fiction under the pen name Phantomimic. I created a web site, and began publishing a writing blog. I self-published an e-book (The Sun Zebra), and planned to follow up with a string of new books, but then life happened. No, need to go into details, but this website and blog went dead for a few years. Eventually I regained my footing in the shores of normality, and I created another website and began writing a new blog related to my profession as a scientist. However, this website and blog remained, and I would visit it every now and then, read some past stuff that I wrote, and peer into the person I had been.
If you think that I am now going to say something to the effect that I will reactivate this web site and blog the way they used to be, that is not the case. I really don’t have the motivation to write about writing again or the energy to keep up two websites and update two blogs on a weekly basis. However, I have begun to do something in my life: travelling. I go to out of the way places, check them out, and take pictures and videos. All this stuff is accumulating in my hard drive where it serves no useful purpose, so I have decided to share it with you.
This will be an eclectic travel blog of sorts, but it won’t be regular. I may not post for weeks, and then all of sudden post several things over a couple of days. Also don’t expect a lot of words (I want to do this with the least effort) and don’t expect me to make a significant point (that’s what my other blog is for). In this blog I will just tell you about the places I visit, and I will alert my followers about what I have posted using my Twitter and Facebook accounts.
I am trying to get back to publishing the remainder of my fiction and write some more, but that is a work in progress. When I do get around to doing so, I will let you know.
