I got started reading blogs long ago, shortly after we got the internet. Over time I have read many blogs that either ran out of steam or I grew bored with and moved on, but there are some that I still read to this day or was referred to from one of those first ones I read. Most of it started with the old blog 'Random Acts of Reality' by Brian Kellet, aka Tom Reynolds. That blog is no longer, but I do have a link to his current page on the right. From there I moved out to Diamond Geezer and Bill Sticker, all of these from across the pond, and looking at their blogrolls I picked up on Tears Before Pearls and others that are no longer on my radar. Thus, most of what I read originated from the UK, and most just happened to have something to do with healthcare, since most started from an ambulance driver's blog.
What I have come to realize, however, is that many bloggers are actual writers. At least the ones I read, and that may not be coincidence. Writers should be able to put together a pretty well written post normally and that is what makes it enjoyable to read and keep coming back. Even my newest blog on my reading list turns out to be a writer in Georgia, Mike Firesmith.
I'm no writer. Oh, I write here, and I enjoy it, but I am no storyteller or wordsmith. I know my limitations and am comfortable with them. My place may not be much and it may not be very interesting to too many other people, but I like it. Thank you to all who I read and have read in the past. You may have inspired me to start this little page, but believe me, I know I am not a writer and I have no aspirations to be one. But, please, continue what you do, I enjoy all of you!
