How does anyone start these things nowadays?

Hey there, thank you for checking out my blog.

I'm Alex, I'm from Brooklyn, and I live in Manhattan these days.

I'm a comedian, writer, voiceover artist, and playwright. Once upon a time I was an actor, and a time before that I was really certain I wanted to be a science-fiction writer. But that was middle school, and aside from Middle School 51's top-notch choir, I don't care to remember most of that awkward time of life.

Now it appears I'm a blogger as well.

I'll admit "I'm starting a blog!" is as done to death as anything else one can declare for themselves these days, but to heck with it. Since becoming a writer for my bread and butter in April last year, I feel more at home when siting to write for my own enjoyment. I'm in the middle of writing a play about comedy club managers and I'm occasionally writing theater reviews , perhaps the time has come to start my own effort and see if my thoughts, memories, and experiences can resonate with anyone else out there.

So I hope you'll join me on this journey and help me hold myself to at least a few entries a month. I'm also an amateur photographer so you may see shots from my Fujifilm X-T4. I'm a little bit of a purist... I only shoot with prime lenses.

So whatever brought you to this blog, thank you for reading.

I hope you'll hang around and keep reading as I dive into early middle aged life here in the Big Apple as a standup and writer.
