My Dramatic Entrance

Hello World!

I, myself, otherwise known as yours truly, hereby declare my new blog open for business! Partly inspired by Experiments in Telling, the title of an English Literature Honours course I’m taking later this year, I will be conducting my own Experiment in Telling about the life, thoughts and misadventures of one Warren [], once known as The Guy With The Hat! (Or Comrade Pillowfighter, in more anarchic circles)

In the great literary tradition of Wezza, Herman, Rebecca (who, as I am obliged to mention, I have never met) and others too numerous to mention, I too have mustered the courage to take my first tentative steps into the murky waters of the blogosphere.

This blog is in a sense the long-awaited literary successor to the Exciting Episodes of My Amazing Australian Adventure*, which were received with excessively critically acclaim by my Aussie schoolmates. As one rave reviewer frequently put it, “you're tripping, [...r...]!” He even added an “R” to my surname, how generous of him.

The title comes from my known obsession with the humble yet versatile pillow. This is arguably the most important of my possessions, yet I am seriously negligent when it comes to maintaining our relationship.

But, enough on the theoretical underpinnings of this blog. There is a “submit” button waiting to be prodded and my mouse-finger is itchy. The Genuine Blog Content will have to wait for another post.
