You've found the blog of Jere Matlock, a web designer and writer. This journal is mostly about writing, web design and getting sites to the top of the search engines (SEO is my business).

Kingsley Amis has a nice quote about that, in which I take solace and some pride when the flames arrive: "If you can't annoy somebody, there's little point in writing."  |  |  | |

He was pale, skinny, dark circles under his eyes. He was very moody, angry, and mean, had no accountability and could care less who he hurt or what he did. “The drug had stolen my …
