It is my hope that you didn’t notice.
I was gone for a couple weeks on my honeymoon.
I’ve written enough posts on the weekends that I’ve scheduled out my writing pieces. I have about thirty or so posts that I’ve written, but have yet to release yet. I could very well disappear for a couple months, and none of my readers would ever know.
The reason I schedule out posts is threefold:
- Usually, I find myself with the most time to write on the weekends
- There’s less stress in trying to pump out writing pieces (trying to be as frequent as ever other day)
- I usually write in flashes of inspiration; usually I write more than one post
While away, I reflected on the venture capital model, capital markets, and I read. I read a lot. With me, I brought along a business book; but, by far, my most enjoyable read came from the classic work, “The Great Gatsby.”
In my younger years I was forced to read Fitzgerald’s “classic.” And most likely, because of that force, I didn’t like it.
For some reason I decided to take it with me on the vacation and give it another try. This time, I very much enjoyed it. I read it twice in less than ten days. While reading his work, I really gained a new appreciation for classic writings and how interwoven they can be with my current life interests: venture capital, finance, capital markets and technology. There are so many themes that are experienced today by the individual, as well as our economy.
Going forward, I’m really excited about VentureDig. With my current work-load, I can’t promise 14 posts a day like Tech Crunch or other publications; however, I can certainly assure you of the consistent direction VentureDig seems to be going: providing meaningful content about technology and finace; and also featuring the best-of-class startup web/tech ventures.

Any feedback or comments on VentureDig is, of course, much appreciated.
