El Hermo's Century

Well, I've done it. I've reached 100 blog posts. No small feat I might add, considering that I am not a dedicated full - time writer. This has been an achievement three years in the making.

I'll give a brief bio:

I started blogging in October 2005 - My first blog was called "El Hermo's den of despair". It was a depressing, sad blog but i loved it like a sick puppy. But, eventually, it had to be put down.

My blog was immediately resurrected in the form of "Casa Del Hermo", a much brighter more positive blog that became home to my expressions and my written voice.

In Year 1, I was writing about 7 posts monthly - inspired by my studies in English Literature and my lameness. In Years 2 and 3, the process slowed as I fell out of the Arts and into the working world.

But i've kept the posts ticking over.

So here I am - at post 100. I still love my blog.

Here are links to my El Hermo's Top 5 Blog posts (in no particular order of preference):

1. Rubber Bullets - My Resistance Ode. My faithful readers will know how I pride myself on dissent to the hegemon!! At least, this poem made me popular.
2. Extreme Smoking - This semi-biographical piece gives you insight into the insanity that is my life! Definitely one of my big favourites!
3. Cracked - The most serious poem i've written in three years...can't fault me for trying :)
4. The Cross-Blog Debate - Love this one - Mach 3 and El Hermo engage in an online debate for the ages, which ended in a crushing defeat for M3 at the hands of my poetic mastery. Read blogs in the following order: Resistance; Menshivik Rebuttal; and Bolshevik Obliteration.
5. A New Dawn - Substantial facebook buzz, a fiery blog war, and pro-obama. Its just got everything!

Thanks for reading, dudes!
To 100 more - but it'll probably only happen in like 10 years :P

Peace
El Hermo
