(no subject)

As of yesterday, it's been a year since I launched my Watched and Learned blog. As with "Downscale," I have little to show for it. Few posts get more than five views; fewer still receive comments, including on Facebook. Even without a deadline, it can feel more like a chore of questionable value than anything else. And movie reviews seem less of an exercise in artistry than webcomics are.

Nevertheless, I plan to keep writing in it. If nothing else, I enjoy looking back at my own work from time to time. (Artists may cringe at their early efforts, but this isn't that early.) Besides, I don't have as good a memory for movies as I used to, so I may like to jog it.

Does this sound silly to you?
