How I crashed out of the rally

Or, “How I crashed my Porche Cayenne”.
How I crashed out of the rally

As we drove toward the crest of the hill, Kees eased onto the Cayenne’s brakes to slow the car down â.. I’m not sure how fast we were going â.. not knowing what was on the other side.
We expected to drive down the other side; we did not expect the ground to drop out from underneath us.
All four wheels left the ground and we paused to hold on in mid-air before the front-left corner dug into the ground and tipped us forward.
There was a moment when Kees looked over from the driver’s seat to ask if I was okay, only to be cut off by the final impact.
It shattered the windshield into a million pieces, which sent my watch flying from my tensed arm and also detached the engine from the car, skittering off to a landing spot many metres away.

About This Site

As a guy who occasionally curates art shows and wrangles artists together, I often have to edit and post artist bios, profile pictures, and artwork images. This can be a problem, since many artists and writers aren’t used to selling themselves. Artists rarely know how to present their art for display in a brochure, and writers aren’t used to writing about themselves.

Writers often treat the bio like it’s an interview or something. Maybe like they’re having a conversation with you, the reader. While it may work sometimes, the most common way to write a bio is to write in the 3rd person.

I’m like those writers, and I’m talking to you directly, unlike the common way to do a bio. You should see my About page. It makes sense to me, since this is a bit which describes my blog’s website. When I get famous enough that I don’t have time to talk to you, I’ll have an intern write everything in 3rd person. Until then, you get to talk to me.

Like blogs of old, this one is a personal document of the comings and goings of me. Articles I’ve written, links I’ve posted, videos I liked, etc. Here, a first-person perspective is the way to go, at least for now. So, this is my site. I’m D. H. McKee, a sometimes artist, sometimes writer. Mostly just a guy on the internet.
