Overture

Let me start by saying: Welcome to all! The grand opening of this blog is upon us, and I'm quite thrilled. I've got to say that a collective effort like this is new to me, and I'm happy to be able to reach a bigger audience for my writings as well. So goodday to friends of my cowriters! ... Oh, and hello to my own 'regulars' as well. I'm not entirely sure what will become of this blog, but I guess we'll find out soon enough.

I'll briefly 'introduce' my cowriters, so it's time for some praise!

First of all, we've got Hannah. Hannah came up with the idea of this whole "writing stuff together" endeavour. The idea wasn't clearly defined, and it still isn't, but it's still a 'rad' idea. I guess I'd describe her as warm, helpful and every now and then a tad random.

We've also got Zosha, whose blog adresses dishonesty and other values a lot, which is something I'm also very keen on. She's perhaps a tad shy when you meet her at first, but once you get to know her, once again a very warm, nice and good person.

Joram's blog is one I've enjoyed reading a lot. His musical endeavours and tastes are quite interesting, as is his blog. He writes some great haunting, thrilling and sometimes even a bit silly short stories, which I just love reading. I also figured it was interesting how his blogs' color scheme is pretty much the complete opposite of mine. Opposites attract, amirite?

The last person on the list is Daniel. He's quite new to the whole blogging thing, but that doesn't show. His blog has mainly been about his insecurities (about his future/ambitions/etc.) so far, something that's very recognizable to me. Now that I think of it, it often scares me how much we think alike.

And me?

My name is Kylian van Beem, and I'm the "author" of the blog Who's that writin'?. My ramblings may be defined as obsessive and pessimistic, but I wouldn't have it any other way. My main interest is music, but what kind of music is hard to describe. On my own blog I've tried to show people by posting a youtube video at the end of pretty much every post (I'm pretty sure only about 5 % of the readers actually listened to those songs, but... ah well.). I reckon I'll continue doing that over here as well. I'm not only on the 'receiving' end of music though, I also enjoy playing the electric/acoustic guitar, bassguitar and even a bit of keyboard (Keep in my mind that 'playing the keyboard' mainly means learning a song, and forgetting about it the next day though). My main instrument is still the guitar... Well, that's actually my main thing in my life. I have to say I'd rather lose my house than my guitar right now.

If you'd like to know more about me, I'd like to invite you to read my blog (Especially the first 2 september posts, those described me pretty well). If you're too lazy to do that, and still want to know a bit more about me... Here are some (key)words I'd use to describe myself:

Musician Pessimist Socialist Mister know-it-all Ignorant fuck Moralist Destined-to-be-a-hobo Lazy Passionate Literate Obsessed Lonely
Seeker of Love Hippy Grammar Nazi Guitarist Harsh

If it's not clear to my cowriters yet, I figured this week would act as an "introduction-week".

So, please enlighten us. WHO ARE YOU?!
