 # Welcome to the Zaguán Blade Blog
 
-This is a placeholder post. Replace me with your actual blog content!
+Hey good folks. In this blog I will try to write about stuff I do and how I try to make Zaguán Blade into something useful.
+
+When I first set out to create it, my first goal was for me to use it - dogfooding, it's called - and have used it exclusively to create this website. During the process I discovered bugs and annoyances that I was then able to fix immediately. It's a slow process because after each change I have to compile it, which takes me about 5 minutes, then test to see if the issue was fixed and then go back and make another change.
+
+The whole process is very rewarding and seeing my vision come to life is pretty awesome.
