Having an unreal name on the Internet, we get a unique opportunity to be real
We live in an amazing time ... Today you can say a lot without saying a single word. You can share thoughts with millions, being completely alone. You can give knowledge and care, not knowing the final destination. You can love and accept the whole world without leaving the square meters of your room. Yes, we really live in an amazing and beautiful time ...
Hello, I am NumberMan. Paradoxically, but having an unreal name on the Internet, we get a unique opportunity to be real. Having abandoned the need to control external manifestations, we are finally able to concentrate on the inner world. Without looking at visual images, without accents on social reality, we can freely begin to reflect and share our thoughts, ideas and conclusions with those around us.
About 9 years I was going to finish writing and publishing a book. The last 6 years, I occasionally wanted to start my blog. Waiting for the right time, a set of possibilities, potential editors, illustrators, publishers and ... ... unwillingness to associate my real identity with authorship allowed me to indefinitely postpone these events. As a result: for many years - no book, no site, no step towards the readers ...
It had to be changed.
- No financial opportunity to release a physical book? - Do electronic!
- No technical opportunity to build a blog? - Create it on an already adapted resource.
- No connections and skills to find readers? - Go where there are already people!
- You do not know how to evaluate your work? - Let it be decided by other people!
- Options? - Well, hello Steemit!
It took me 3 weeks to bring the concept of a printed work into the plane of short and simple publications. Several hundred pages turned into several dozen. Sketches of illustrations were collected in a simple graphic editor. The idea of foreign publication options was realized thanks to online translators. Simplicity, brevity, availability.
This is how the dream became a reality and filled with an additional meaning the new period of my life.
From today I begin to share with you particles of my inner world and reflections in the format of a blog on Steemit. I hope you find your personal meaning in it and see something interesting.
As I have already said, I am going to publish materials not only in my native Russian, but also in two more popular languages of the world - English and Spanish. And let the speakers of these languages forgive me — I really try to translate everything with the tools available on the web (at the time of this writing I have already translated several publications and I really hope that Spanish-speaking and English-speaking readers will not be offended for not the best quality). Thus, I should get a blog, initially consisting of three identical branches in three different languages.
Well, let's see what happens. And now - thanks for reading this post to the end. This is the most valuable proof that at least I wrote these lines for a reason. Thank you.
