Between You And Me

Friends, I would very much like (and appreciate) your help.

I am writing a new blog—inspired by all of you guys (ya’ll, depending).

I have so many unique, intelligent, and hilarious friends. I am continually inspired by you and I would like to do what you do to all good things—I would like to exploit that.

While writing from my own unique experiences is nearly unavoidable, I would like to write about topics that interest you more, that entertain you more, that engage you—because the ideas come from you. 

This would look something like this:

1. I post a request for topic ideas on facebook.
2. Within a week’s time, you provide suggestions for the blog topic.
3. During that week you are also encouraged to vote for your favorite suggestions, this can include your own suggestion.
4. At the end of the week, the suggestion with the most votes will be the topic I write about.
5. I will post the winner’s blog within the week and then ask for a new suggestion.

This idea requires me (us all) to take a leap of faith, 2 leaps actually:
1. That you, my friends, will be interested in joining me/humoring me on this journey.

2. That you, my friends, will be pleased with the results of this writing experiment.

In other words—I may fail. I may fail for you all to see.

But whose to say my failure won’t be the entertainment we are all looking for? 

And with failure comes growth—which is what I am seeking, after all. 

To demonstrate how comfortable I am failing for all of you to see, here is a short video of me doing just that. 

I initially aspired to host a video requesting your participation for this blog,
but well, 
you can see for yourself just how inadequate some of us are (me) in front of a camera.
