Welcome!

I am John Hewitt and this is my blog. I am a Content Strategist for a personal finance company. I also write fiction and poetry, which I publish here. I enjoy a lot of television shows, movies, and books which I also post about from time to time. I have a life and sometimes write about it.

This is my spot to talk about whatever I want, no matter how controversial or mundane.

About this blog

This is my personal blog. It reflects my thoughts and opinions and not those of any employers (past or present) or other affiliated parties. Any endorsements I make are my own.

I don’t use an ad service, but I do have affiliate links to Amazon if I talk about a book, show, or other item.

Also, I have no editor, and I sometimes make typos or otherwise write badly. Yes, I am a professional writer. Yes, I also make mistakes.

There’s no need to let me know. It won’t change anything about me or you. I don’t care how much traffic I get, so you aren’t hurting the site if you leave. Everything is fine. Just go do something you enjoy more than reading my thoughts.
