Some of you know him as Gordie in
Stand By Me or as Wesley Crusher in
Star Trek: The Next Generation, or ST:TNG to us geeks.
Wil Wheaton is more that. He is a writer, comedian, actor,
apparently a heck of a poker player (he's in the WSOP hold'em
tournament this year), a step-father to two boys and I find him an
excellent writer. I have read his two books and I read his blog
all the time.
Many people think I'm a total geek for reading his blog all the time,
but I just want those nay-sayers to read this entry.
This is the
kind of writing that proves to the world that he's a good writer.
He lets you into his life, just a little. He makes you
smile. His life, which is coincidentally 2 days shorter than
mine, has been full of so much that he has lots of stories to
tell. He tells them well.
I hope you agree.
