XXXII: The Deranged Writer’s Struggle with Steinermania I

Scott Steiner is one of my favorite professional wrestlers of all time. As one-half of the Steiner Brothers alongside Rick Steiner, he is a gifted heavyweight athlete who unbelievably moves with the agility of a cruiserweight. And when he became the madman that is “Big Poppa Pump”, he delivered some of the craziest diatribes in pro wrestling history (whether he’s wearing a chainmail headgear or not)… and I laugh at them. The man has no chill.

But lately, I think I have been watching too many Scott Steiner videos too many times, and almost everything reminds me of him. In short, I got Steinermania.

XI: Full Circle I (The Diary’s 1st Anniversary)

The last time I celebrated a blog anniversary was in 2008 – I have been using WordPress for a year and I have a different name and persona. Since then (evolving into The Deranged Writer and all), either (1) I blogged for several months and then stopped it and gave my blog a hard reset, or (2) I forgot to acknowledge my blog anniversary. That is why it is so sweet to celebrate my anniversary today after many attempts and years to blog regularly. (Even if many people don’t read blogs anymore.) Good job, self!

So, what did I learn and do to blog frequently? Here are the things I learned and my writing process on The Diary. (Buckle up because this is going to be a long post.)
