Fresh Beginnings

I know that every man and his dog (is that the phrase?) has a blog nowadays, and I've even had a few before now too which tailed off after a couple of posts (commitment issues!?). I was prompted by a chat with a lady at university who told me if I want to get into publishing (which I do), having a blog can be a good way of presenting yourself and showing your abilities. 

I love looking at people's blogs - I find it fascinating on many levels. I study linguistics at university, so I suppose I find it interesting seeing how people choose to present themselves through this medium. I also love the sorts of blogs that appeal to my inner-child; the one's with lots of pictures. So I will endeavour to create something that would appeal to me, in the hope that it appeals to you.
