I didn't write much about how I use TW to the outside world, and perhaps I should change that. Here's a story about how I returned to it, last week. Hope it's ok to share personal stories :)

Thanks for those of you who read. 

I know this looks a bit like a plug or an attempt to read my stuff. OK yeah, sure, and you haven't heard of me before either... I know. So I wanted to explain a bit more:

I've been a member of this community as long as I used TW (about two years now) under my real name. This is my pseudonym. Why pseudonym? Because some of the stuff I write about is NSFW, or not considered SFW. Sometimes I write things that could cause conflict with people I work with. I love TW and this is an honest post about it. 

There are technical things I could definitely write about more, philosophical or technical, and I'm open to suggestions :)

Thanks!

Ciao Josh

Thanks for this....

the most important thing that got me back to TiddlyWiki is that it was completely mine.

Yes, it is. I personally like these accounts because it grounds the reasons for going TW.

Best wishes

Hi Josh.  I would like to add my thanks for your testimony. I get a lot of meaning and value from it. Inspiration even. I've ran in circles for the past few weeks trying to decide how to move forward regarding "my stuff", which includes a lot of writing. To date, I have determined I am not ready to move away from TW, but how I work with it is changing. Your personal experience helps to nudge me into trying (at least) to follow your lead and make a statement about how I use TW and my reasons for it. Again, thanks a lot.
