I am the founder and editor of a magazine.
It has been on hiatus for some time now.
Years. In times of crisis I might say, “I’m
going to start working on it again.” This is
a time of crisis. However, this is also the
day after which I made a promise some
months ago that at that point (this one)
I will begin working on new issues of the
magazine again. I figure if one says some
thing publicly, like I am doing now (mega
phones might be used, yet people may not
hear a thing; this is public), makes a procla
mation that “I will do ______,” then the like
lihood of one doing it might be higher due to
the, I don’t know, shame or embarrassment
or lost pride you mkight suffer after you’ve
made such a proclamation and yet did not do
what you declared you would. But I already
made a promise to myself. The day is here.
There is no need for me to be public about
such things. I am the founder and editor
of a little journal that has been on hiatus
for a while. Today I shall begin to work
to put together its newest issue.
