I stopped writing more than 7 months ago, after coming to the conclusion that there was no way for me to keep up with the Orlando Sentinel, The Daily City, local news outlets and other sites in creating unique content about Orlando. There just wasn’t enough time to get all of the stories in (of those that I wanted to write, and those that I was asked to write) before they had already been written about elsewhere (with better style, and content, of course). My goal of covering the “locals view of Orlando” was being handled by pros.
Now that I’ve had some time away, I think I can take a more laid back approach to my writing. Worry less about getting the story out at the right moment, and focus on getting the details that make life in Orlando interesting. Not sure if that means I’ll have one story a day, or one story a week, but at least a few stories per month about what I’m doing (or friends, other bloggers, etc.) around town.
Anyway, just wanted to get back to this site and see what it can become. First story to come soon (but not too soon)!

Thanks, Matt. I’m sure I’ll be referencing many Attractions Magazine articles in the near future. Good stuff!

Glad to see this pop up again in my RSS Feeds! Looking forward to seeing what you have up your sleeve.

The only thing up my sleeve may be an upgrade of the software that runs Living Orlando (and therefore, some possible downtime). Depends on the amount of time I have to such a task.
