Hello. My name is Armando Valle. I’m Puertorican, age 53, and currently reside in Baltimore, MD. For over a year, I’ve been meaning to complete this project, this website you’ve landed on. It’s important to finish the projects you begin, regardless of the results.

TMPBlog is a personal blog where I intend to write about a wide variety of subjects, from film to music, politics and culture, to recovery and sexuality. For a good while now, I’ve been wanting to concentrate on my writing. This site will be the repository for that writing.

The intent here is not to be popular, or to be widely read, or to be an influencer. The point is to have an outlet for my creativity, to send my thoughts gently into the vastness of the internet. Articles will be short. No more than a page or two. I aim to stimulate my brain and also yours. Not to bore you.

I will be writing for an audience of one. I hope also that this place will be therapeutic, where I can continue to heal and keep myself whole. So, with that said, whoever you are, Welcome stranger.
