The Origins of Maverick Quickies

What's with all the Maverick Quickies I'm doing?

Well I'm trying to be more active on Blogger but I get writers block...well most of the time....

What's happening is that it's a combination of not having an idea what to write about as well as a general lack of photos and information. Most of it is often drawing a blank, getting so frusturated at things like Hollywood strikes, tax-write-offs, work, etc. that I can't concentrate on the main topic at hand.

I don't like having to make my posts without photos but at the same time, I don't want to go wax-philosophical or cherry-pick my viewpoints.

So what I do is find things I've got on my USB stick or my External Hard Drives, find a topic to talk about, and make a quick post about it. 

Despite Quickie being in the name, I don't actually keep my posts short. I have admitted in my past Maverick Quickies that they can be somewhat long and dry because I have a lot to talk about but I try so goddamn hard to condense the posts to something simple and effective. In essence, the quickies are actually filler until my head is cleared from writers block.


For example, In my Roger Klotz Hair post, I tried to keep things short which I did but then I veered off into talking about how I'm getting my Screen Captures, etc.

In fact, the only time my Maverick Quickies were actually short was when I announced the tentative end to the SAG-AFTRA strikes but I had an excuse for that. I was pissed over a snafu with my debit card the day I was going to purchase my graphics card. I worked around that but whatever, I was posting on my phone which I shouldn't do due to the small screen as well as less than ideal navigation as well as photos in my phone that aren't on topic with what I want to talk about.


So there you have it, the origins of my Maverick Quickies. 

I promise to tone down the Quickies on December.
