I was so caught up in Nanowrimo at the beginning of this month that I forgot that sometime in late October was my One Year Anniversary as a blogger.

My first blog was called “Smash Your Head Against the Writer’s Block”. That site mutated and split into “Sentenced To Write” and “Doomed To Rock”. I then recombined both of those blogs into the short lived “The Lost Highway” until settling comfortably into Fred Charles Blog (the title is uninspired, yes, but I like it).

Along the way, I have met scores of awesome folks. Some are writers, some are readers, some are music fans and some are just plain cool people.

As a fiction writer, it’s great to have a place to talk about writing with other people who have had the experience, both good and bad. I don’t have that in my personal life since no one that I know actually writes. Some of my friends have potential but after several conversations with them about writing I realize that they lack drive. So, knowing that, most of the support that I get as a writer is from you wonderful people out there in Internet Land. Believe me, your words of encouragement mean a lot to me.

Since Thanksgiving is right around the corner, there’s no one better that I can think of to give thanks to than all of you.
