Top 10 reasons I have a website

10. A desire to be helpful (one of my core motivations)

9. I love the internet and want to be part of it

8. A good use for compulsive list-making

7. An outlet for creative impulses and restless mental energy

6. Therapy (the many benefits of “telling one’s story”)

5. Looking to learn new skills

4. I want a “soapbox”

3. What should I do with all these cocktail recipes?

2. To push myself to put time into writing

… and the number one reason I have a website – the same reason people climb the mountain:

1. Because it is there!

(The “mountain” here would be the internet.)
