a personal blog

I have started many blogs and allowed many blogs to peter out because the subject has been too specific for my ever-shifting areas of interest, so I’m thinking of using Medium to start a basic personal blog where I can publish whatever I want (without worrying whether the post is relevant to the overall subject of a themed blog).

I was (only vaguely) surprised to see that I have a Medium account already (because I am intermittently fascinated by new internet-publishing platforms). I like the aesthetic of Medium, and I like the idea that the platform has a built-in social aspect, a functionality that lends itself to accessing an audience.

So, we’ll see what comes of this space, authored for now by a user called Lesser King, which must have been a play on my given name, Ryan, which I understand means ‘little king’ in Irish. Probably I will change the user name Bodhi Schier-Paine, a moniker I have settled on to such an extent that it will probably not change again. Probably.
