Possibly. A friend (who shall remain nameless) said to me 'You had a rehearsal and blogged about it. How up your own arse is that?'
I am up myself like all artists and writers are (mostly). Not as up myself as some other writers in history, but still, more up myself, than for instance, if I were doing a blog about cooking.
However, I wonder if I would appear less up myself if I changed the title of my blog from my own name to 'Twitterings from the Dark Metropolis' or some such. Any thoughts from my one follower (so far) or any other stray readers?
And now the night has fallen and it is time for me to finish watching Mulholland Drive before I fall asleep (again).
I don't think you need to or ought to change the blog name; you are in fact what it is about, and certainly "Twitterings from the Dark Metropolis" would say much less about why someone would want to read it than your name does. The article on the rehearsal was innately interesting, and having read it, I would hope the stranger who stumbled upon it would want to know the name of the writer. It would be different if you were dull and self-absorbed, but you are emphatically not.
