About


My name is Brendan Shields. I run and maintain this blog, "Stardansheill" a place I venture to to write down all the random thoughts I have and turn them into stories. I love to write and plan to spend as much time over the summer months after college as I can writing new things and posting them up here. 


The picture above sums up what this blog is all about in my opinion. that is me before I got all my hair shaved off for the Irish Cancer Societies shave or die event. And I know they say that a picture paints a thousand words, but I think this one needs a bit of back story. Basically I decided that I would make the resolution to try one new thing every week for the year and do some of them as charitable event type things. 


This idea was inspired by a man named Brian Reilly who has a web series on youtube called Brian Reilly & Things To Do Before You Die where he does amazing things to raise money for a charity that was set for a friend of his called the Ross Nugent Foundation to raise money for equipment for hospital to help cancer patients and their families. He is an amazing man and an inspiration for everyone. Even if you see this and don't like my blog, please check out Brians youtube channel and give him support.


Now, where was I? Oh yes, the picture. It was my favourite new thing to do cause I am a big believer in cancer charities and always try to support them. You can read all about it here.


Some of my new things are kind of silly little things that have to do with college and going out, but they are still things that I have or never would have done before. But a lot of them are going to be for charity. I am always open to people suggesting things for me to try. 


The name Stardansheill was created by a friend and is just random things put together. It's unigue and origanl, + I like it so it's staying that way. 


Everything I put up here is my own opinion and I never set out to upset or offend people. I just write what I think and post it. So don't take anything I say personally and if it is upsetting tell me and I will do something about it. 

This blog is for everyone so please if you happen to pass upon it and find it interesting pass it on and let others possibly enjoy it. 

That's basically what this blog and I are all about. So I hope you enjoy it and please comment if you like it. And comment even if you don't like it. Just tell me why you don't like it. I'm always trying to improve my writing and all criticism is welcome.

  1. i LIKE THE REASON YOU WRITe AND STARTED THIS SITE. For what it is worth I think you should write the bit about this: "I decided that I would make the resolution to try one new thing every week for the year" or something like it at the top of your sidebar so people know straight away what the blog is about.
