Internet, my name is Nicolai Carter and you're at the home of mega-business Penguin Stories, Incorporated.
Almost none of that was true.
First, my name is not Nicolai Carter, but due to the nature of my job I'm not really okay with broadcasting my identity. Any other names that appear on this blog have been changed, as well. Aside from that, everything you read here is absolutely true unless it isn't.
Second, Penguin Stories, Inc. isn't a corporation. It's not a business in any sense of the word - it's my escape from business. My wife and I are both self-employed, live together child-free in Atlanta, Georgia, we're both in our mid twenties, and we're living the dream. Working from home is amazing, but it does kinda mean you'll never get away from your job.
One of my favorite escapes has always been the handful of blogs I read religiously. I recently realized just how much joy and laughter they've brought me over the years, and I thought I'd like to take a crack at it myself. At the very least, this will give me something to do in front of my computer instead of staring at work stuff.
This page has not been very useful. I realize that now.
