It’s My Self-Referential Introduction Post
My girlfriend reads exactly one blog. Mine! The other day she asked if she could do a guest post. So without further ado, here is Witgirl. After this I’m no longer a virgin I’m new to the blogosphere, yet thanks to the trusty guidance of Chase March I am slowly becoming acquainted. I know I […]

I Thought It Wasn’t For Me
It’s no secret that I don’t like social networking sites. I’ve written about this topic several times here on Silent Cacophony. That’s why you will probably be surprised that I have been won over by one of them. That’s right, I am on Twitter and enjoying it. At first I didn’t get it and I […]

Double Spacing Between Sentences is Not Cool Anymore!
I never really learned how to type properly. I’m not horrible at it. I can type fairly fast but I only use about four fingers and a thumb to do so. I remember learning that it was proper to hit the space bar two times at the end of each sentence. For typewriters this was […]

Year Three of My Five-Year Mission
My five-year mission was simply to write as much as possible with the goal of being published within five years. I started this blog two years ago today with that goal in mind. It seemed achievable and I have been working towards that end since then. This was my first-year update at the start of […]

Blog Inaction Day
Yesterday I lamented about the old posts that get forgotten in the blogosphere. Today I have a solution. We need to collectively stop and take a look back. That’s why I am proposing a Blog Inaction Day. That’s right. A day of inaction. A day where all bloggers don’t publish anything. A day where we […]

Blogs are Disposable
You know it’s true. I mean, when was the last time you read a post of any blog that wasn’t the most recent post? Why is it that we always gravitate towards the newest material? We only want to see the latest movies, either at the ciniplex or at the rental store. We only want […]

Welcome to the SC!
Silent Cacophony was born a long, long time ago. I remember exactly how it started. I was fishing through the dictionary and came across this wonderful word “cacophony.” It meant a harsh or discordant sound. I didn’t even know how to pronounce the word at the time, but it resonated with me for some reason. […]

Twice as Much Work
It’s a bit frustrating teaching a split class. There is just so much stuff that I need to juggle. I’ve been trying my best and I know that I’ve been doing a good job. But I also know, that I can always do better. I’ve been staying late almost every single night for the past […]
