Dashingly Dynamic David Ducey's Dismounting...Into Blogging.

Hey all, my name is David Ducey. To be more specific, my name is David F. Ducey IV. I am currently a Professional Writing major at Champlain College in Burlington, VT. Been looking at blogging for awhile now, but never really thought to start one of my own. Full name of this blog was gonna be, "Ducey's Deuce Dissertations and Discourses," but I decided it was too long and decided to go for something catchier.

A lot of this blog will be me writing whatever strikes my fancy on any given day. I plan to do reviews: movie, video game, and pretty much any media I encounter and feel like reviewing; I also plan to write short stories and a little bit of poetry and throw that up as well. I am also gonna be putting up a few sports postings, when they are relevant.

Now, you are probably wondering what makes my blog any different than any other of the millions floating around cyberspace. I am gonna tell you now. All my blogs have two opinions: one a critical and intellectual examination of the subject -- an opinion backed by facts and careful analyzing. The other opinion is how atomically charged, flamethrower-strapped-to-a-monster-truck, granite shatteringly AWESOME something is.

I've always been under the impression that critics take things too seriously. But, being a writer, I also like to know why I like the things I like, why the classics are considered classics, and how I can learn from that to get filthy stinking rich one day elevate my own work. So, I do both -- analyze and receive mindless entertainment.

Well, that's what this blog is gonna be about in a nutshell. I am gonna have a lot of fun writing this thing, and I hope you viewers have a fun time reading it.

  2. Essentially. Though, since Football season is more or less finished, it'll be more "Go Caps!"
