Plans for the future.
Plans never seem to come to fruition. We all have our little busy lives and our little schedules we have to keep. I hate that. Sometimes you want to give something back, and with all the stuff people need to do we never seem to get them out of the door.
A few thoughts of extra-blogging plans I’ve either not started yet or never thought would work.
Tell me which ones to do think you’d like to see. It’s for you as well as me.
Free Wordpress Templates
This was something I thought would be pretty interesting to do. Not only would it be good as I would be able to train my web design skills every couple of weeks, but you’ll have templates you can use and edit for your own blog. They’ll all be creative-commons attribution non-commercial license.
Video Podcast
I’m not too sure about this one - but I thought it would be slightly cool to have a student food podcast. It’s something I haven’t seen in the iTunes Podcast Directory and could be possible. Not sure it would be successful though.
Blog dedicated to Dyslexia
This is in the works. I’ve got the website up and running but the design and content isn’t ready yet. If you want to help (anyone with knowledge of dyslexia who wants to share their story concerning it) you’re more than welcome to.
More readers!
Well, it’s more of a dream. But an attainable dream.
Comic
It’s something simple I’d do on another site that I had a plan for a while ago - but I haven’t drawn anything in a year. I used to be pretty good, so I thought this would be a good way of bringing that skill back from the dead. No gamer storyline, promise. Something… different.
Stories
I’m planning on doing
There’s a few things that will probably be unattainable, but some I thought you’d like. Don’t forget to share your thoughts about which you’d like to see.

Free Wordpress Templates-Smart idea
video podcast: not a fan(not that I don’t like looking at you but it’s a lot of work and only benefits one person)
Dyslexia?- i don’t get where this issue came from..a little random but I like the heart.
More readers…advertise
Comic: Fun and I like the idea…you are a great artist.(make me a character!)
Stories: If you write it, they will come…I’ll be one of the first to ask you to sign my printed copy.I can’t wait!

Thanks Corinne.
Yeah, the video podcast wasn’t exactly the best idea of the bunch. Just something I was throwing out there.
What do you mean that the Dyslexia blog is a little ‘random’? Have you forgotten that I myself am a dyslexic? Read How I cope with my Dyslexia.
The comic idea will be taking months instead of days. There’s things I need to do and figure out before anything happens.
Awww.. Yeah, hopefully the stories will be good… Thanks.

Always room for another rational blog about dyslexia. I went back and saw I left a comment on ” How I Cope “. My slant on dyslexia is that it is a syndrome rather that a condition which means that once you get past the essential part of not reading well that any particular dyslexic may or may not have the particular problems that are usually listed as signs of dyslexia.
I also comment on how the media distorts the conclusions of studies about dyslexia and reports “cause of dyslexia found” time after time. It is as if every time a new association is made about dyslexia that all previous knowledge must be discarded. I am not one to argue that data is wrong, generally I believe the data. It is the conclusions from that data where I usually see problems if any exist.
Count me in.
