Kupowered: Guess Who's Back

Guess Who's Back

This guy.

I'll be working on the first article in a few. Dunno if I'll just do the one, or a couple; I feel like I want to make up for lost time, but I also don't want to push too far into it again and burn myself out or anything like that. If setting a fairly easy goal for posts on this early has taught me anything, it's that if I hold myself to something entirely reasonable, then I can usually go above that without too much issue. So saying "Well, I'm going to do three articles a day to make up" would be the wrong thing to do, but to not say that I might do an extra would be equally wrong since, hey, I might.

Italics. Boy, did I miss doing that.

I do kind of wonder something, though; the first article on my mind that will likely be going up in a few hours is going to start yet another group of articles that I do, and I was wondering if this means I'm actually being a little too scattered. I mean, this is my blog, and I write about what I want to write, but I also tend to wonder if I need to make a whole other group. I look at what I've got and go, "well, honestly, how many more "Giant Robot On"s can I write?", and then I think, "Well, I could always end up watching the original, or G Gundam, or when I start playing DWG2, and eventually, DWG3" which means it'll get talked about enough to warrant it.

And, again as I've alluded to before, structure isn't really dire for this blog. It could be argued that structure would be bad for this blog. The loose set of 'rules' I have in place for it for myself are fairly sufficient to push out content on a daily basis as I want it to, and the thinking is that any limitations would push me to want to break those, as is human nature. But now I'm rambling, and confusing myself. Basically, what I'm getting at is that I'm putting it out to you readers, all five of you, is what you think. I reserve the right to do whatever I want to do regarding this, of course, but a little input is appreciated at the very least. Am I doing too much too early? Or is the variety the spice of it?

As a separate question, given that I've already got quite a few open 'groups' (as is shown by the sidebar explaining them), should I parse that sidebar down a bit for the less self-explanatory only? Or just leave it (and expand it) as is; explaining each type as it is because I apparently enjoy being that thorough?

What's all this, then?

This is going to be many things, but first and foremost, it is, quite simply and unsurprisingly, a place for me to write. Sometimes about video games, sometimes about movies, and other times, just to write out mini-stories and the like. As an outlet for me, it will likely reflect how I am; at times it will be entertaining, and other times it will be informative. I just hope that every time it's interesting at the very least.

The current goal is a post every other day to settle myself in; eventually, I will seek to post every day, if just to raise an inquiry that I've found I've tripped over most of that day, or to retell an amusing, or perhaps less so, tale from the day. I find that I can be long-winded at times, so perhaps this will be less of a concern than I imagine!

While it would make sense to change this to grow as "Kupowered" does, I hope to keep this just as it is and, sometime down the road, re-read it with a slight chuckle and mumble to myself, "I did it." So take this as a mission statement, if you will, and we will see how it works out!

Handy Post-Types Guide!

A Look Back: In lieu of reviews (which I might do in the future), these posts will be fond recollections of older games from my past, telling you why I believe them to be good and why you might be interested in playing them.
Giant Robot On: I like Giant Robots. Who doesn't? These posts will always be talking about something with Giant Robots in it, be it video games or anime or movies.
Less-Short Story: On occasion, inspiration will hit me and I'll want to write a short story or, as the name implies, expand on a story from my old Ficly. That will be these posts.
LittleBigThings: In these posts, I will be discussing (read: gushing about) things in the LittleBigPlanet series of games, from the game itself, to user-created levels, to my own adventures in Craftworld.
Music!: Fairly self-Explanatory. In these posts, I will talk (gush) about music I like, and possibly music that I don't care for.
Popcorn On: These posts will revolve around movies that I've seen that are just great in one way or another. The aim is to give you enough to interest you into seeing it without giving too much so that you feel you know what's going to happen.
Quick Note: These will usually be, as can be expected, short posts to keep in touch with the blog and it's readers if I'm not prepared for a full post or if I'm updating on a past post.
Ragequit: Completely opposite of A Look Back, these posts will be about the few games I've had to quit playing because they just weren't fun. (Or that I might have finished, but still hated.)

There will likely be more types of posts added in the future that will be explained here.
