Believe it or not, before the great blogging craze, some brave individuals had personal sites and pages filled with daily minutiae, anecdotes and stories–they just weren’t so easy to publish. Back then it took a certain kind, well, a lot of kinds, really, but one such type is the articulate but funny writer.

One such writer is Craig Mitchell, who has been posting journal entries, short stories and essays since 1998. These can be found on his site, as well as the epic dating novella “She hates my futon”. Also on the site is a very active forum, which Craig contributes to heartily. He’s got a writing style that’s both easy to read and engaging enough to want to devour all at once.
