Footers


I’ve become a bit obsessed with finding the perfect line to end my postings with. I’m not looking for some kind of awful regular sign-off, I’m just finding myself staring at everything I write after I’ve written it and wondering if the last bit is okay. Yesterday is a case in point. The rambling weirdness of the ‘uncoordinated’ paragraph seemed to come to an abrupt end, so I tried to come up with something witty that would tie a nice little bow on the end of the story without it looking as if I’d just run out of steam and stopped typing. But I couldn’t think of anything apt so ended up putting ‘What a world…’ What a dickhead.
I’m going to try and break the habit today, and just finish writing what I’m writing when I’ve finished writing it, and then leave it wherever it is. Seemed to work okay for the first 2000 or so blogs so why should it stop working now?
