About
Writing has been a hobby of mine for a good decade now. Not one I often shared, which is probably why I've been so on and off with actually putting pen to paper. I have written quite a few for sake of keeping track of everything idea that I've had running through my brain. Some of them are lost in the archives of the internet. Most of them are with friends that have a similar interest to myself, and won't be featured for a variety of reasons. But the art of crafting stories had been with me for a large part of life, and a somewhat secret pleasure of mine ever sense I started doing it. So why start a blog after all this time? Well for last couple years I've attempted to follow two rules "don't make the hobby into a job" and "enjoy what you do for a living." Might be a bit obvious to the rest of you, but those two don't work together that well. For me it gave way in this October, when I commit to writing up one piece "Convictions" for all 31 days. Between writing that up and full time job I had little if any free time, but it one of the most enjoyable months I've had in a while. I've come to a point in life where I feel something has to give. So hi, my name is Ranen Erdahl, and this is a blog of my writings.
