Offline Blogging Software

        
I’m at it again… blogging. What you didn’t think I’d write about something else now… Well this time it’s a bit of a gripe about proxies, and firewalls and getting BlogJet to work from my desktop. Would have liked to get the BlogJet software to work seeing as I forked out for the family pack license… I’ll check at home and see if the software works there where I’m far removed from the corporate drones and their drone mentality.

        I’ve even tried to download Microsoft Live Writer but the download doesn’t even open on the desktop -- guess Windows XP Professional is just too old for such current software, so I’m writing this on the trusty MACBook Pro with MacJournal… at least here I can write offline and upload the final to the site… spell checked and only grammatical and usage errors due to yours truly.

There is a crack in everything. That’s how the light gets in.

As writers we forget that we are human first, writers second, and if your married, being a writer moves lower down on that list. Add children to this mix and you slide even lower on the priority list. Unless of course you are of the lucky few who actually earn a living by writing then you need to schedule writing in between all the other tasks that you have to attend to. In my attempts at becoming a better writer I’ve read a large volume of material, some of the pieces from great writers, others from writers in the making. Today I’ve read that Gore Vidal had died. Did I know who Gore Vidal was before today… nope. Does that make me a bad person, or worse, a bad writer? Should we not try and learn from the best to improve ourselves. I’d say yes, but since I’ve never read a line, correction, thanks to Writer’s Digest , several quotes from Mr Vidal, but also none of his actual books. I am saved from having to find some of his works since it seems Mr Vidal would have chosen a vocation ins...
