Jeff of The Midnight Hour

April 3rd, 2007, by valane

Jeff talks about his milblog The Midnight Hour.

Question: What are 3 things your readers probably do not know about you?

I am very particular about cheesecake. Baked New York style is the only acceptable type to me, and then it must be of the right texture (flaky, not creamy or mushy).
I cannot think in 24-hour time (1700, 1900, vs 5 PM, 7 PM, etc). I always have to think in 12-hour time and then convert when talking or corresponding with people at work.
In social settings I won’t participate in communication where everyone is shouting and nobody is listening. I’ll only talk at normal volumes, in turn, if the other person is really listening.

Question: How long have you been blogging and why did you get into blogging?

Since January 2006. Started as a way to keep friends and family informed of my endeavors. For some reason people enjoyed reading it and it took off from there.

Question: What is your military experience?

I’ve been a Marine Corps signals intelligence officer for about 3 years.

Question: What are some of your other favorite Milblogs?

I don’t read other milblogs. The one I write is plenty for me.

Question: What has been the biggest factor in helping you create and publish a successful blog?

My webmaster, Rapture, providing the space and setting up Wordpress for me was the biggest factor. He also did a lot of publicizing for the blog early on.
