I was interested in having a site, but had no idea what to do with one. So I thought I learn how to make a site by going thru the steps, but stop before the final step, and then come back when I got an idea of what to do. But before I knew it, I had accidentally published the site, and had my own little piece of webspace.<br \/>\nI spent entire time I had the site from 05 all the way till geocities closed in late 09, just trying to decide what to do with the damn thing. I realized early on I had no idea what to do, hence the meta joke name, &#8220;A Place Where Nothing Happens&#8221;, mocking my own directionless approach to the site. In time, I came to posting my comics, talking about my projects, writing reviews, and giving my general thoughts. I tried to make a point to update it at least once a month, though I blew that often.<\/p>\n<p>In 2012, I just wanted to get out my job, which I hated with a passion. I just had to get out, didn&#8217;t have the money for collage, no other job lined up, I just had to get the F*** out of there before I lost my mind completely. I figured 2012 was going to be my last year there, so I was planning to try to grow my youtube, and try to get something published. So I started this site to be a central resource for my work and replace A Place Where Nothing happens. I set this site up in Aug &#8217;12, and I finally quit my job the following February. While I was relived to be out of that place, my head space completed shifted, I was simply not thinking the same things creativity wise. I just couldn&#8217;t finished what I started before I quit my job, and a new creative universe was forming in my mind. Honestly, looking back on what I was working on back then, it was probably for the best that stuff never made it out to the light of day.<del datetime=\"2017-07-29T15:44:23+00:00\">The cringe is real. <\/del><br \/>\nWorking 3rd shift since 2014 also made it difficult to do anything really. I really only seem to have maybe a couple of hours a day to myself, and if I don&#8217;t do anything in that time, well that&#8217;s it. (I&#8221;m pushing my bed time writing this btw.)<\/p>\n<p>So here we here, over five f***in&#8217; years since I made this site, and it&#8217;s another A Place Where Nothing Happens, literally. This new creative multiverse in my headspace seems stable enough, and I feel the ideas may have a wide enough appeal. I just want to read some more before I do the really hard writing. But I feel I need a practice in diligence in the meantime. So I look back to this site, and just like A Place Where Nothing happens before it, I shall make a point to update it at least once a month. Whither it&#8217;s a short one shot comic, a short piece of writing, and just a good old fashion rant blog. I feel this is what need to get me back to my old creative grove.<br \/>\nI&#8217;m thinking of changing the site around somewhat, so keep a eye open, at least eye on my social media.<\/p>\n<p>-Later.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was early May of 05 when I was messing around with geocities, I loved looking around at the personal sites of geocities and angelfire just seeing what other regular people when throwing up on the net.
