Just thinking about change.

When the printing press was invented those in power sought to license and control it. They feared that it would be used to spread dangerous ideas.

Photography was invented and it was thought to be the end of painting.

Television was invented and it was thought to be the end of movies.

Social media is thought by some to be the end of civilization.

It will all work out. It always has. Enjoy a good book, a movie or a social media post by a friend. Thanks for stopping by.

Banning books and other foolishness

You simply cannot ban a book and you just look foolish when you try. Anyone with a phone, tablet or computer can get a free library card from the Brooklyn Public Library and download any banned book for free. They are seeing about 18,000 downloads per month.

There were people who tried to control the printing press. Technology made that impossible. There were people who for a while censored television and radio. Technology simple outran those folks. You get the idea.

I would consider myself a real writer if I could write a book that someone cared enough to ban.

Thanks for stopping by. Mike L.

Blog Post Title Three

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.

Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.
