“Blog More.”

That’s what I was told during a recent discussion with a colleague as he was “blogging on his blog“. It’s common sense, yeah. I have a blog, why not use it?

The thing here is, as soon as I start to break out of my average posting time (say, every three days), the harder it is to come back. And when I do come back, the tendency is to start out with a “boy, it’s been awhile” sort of post instead of diving into real content, assuming there was any in the first place.

My problem lately is that my creative “pie chart” is currently overtaken by three things:

  1. Design
  2. Coding
  3. Acting

The first two are pretty standard considering the recent freelance decision, but the third is unexpected. As much as I enjoyed West Side Story, it took a lot out of me and with freelance calling my name, I was looking forward to a lack of rehearsals. Suffice it to say, the lull didn’t last as long as I would’ve liked.

Obviously, both writing and photography are excluded from the list, which means this blog suffers. But here’s me, blogging more.

    I forgot! It’s not that I don’t have downtime, it’s just that in the downtime I do have, I’d rather be working on my Gamerscore than working my site ;)

    I think most would say that in venturing into freelance your blog becomes more important. You know, the whole drive visitors to your site bit.

    Best reason for lulls in blog posts: not having anything to say.

    I post whenever I please. sometimes weeks between each, sometimes a couple times a day.

    I have a tendency to post in order to whine about some technological hurdle, or announce something I can’t shut up about to my friends in order to let “the world” know as well.

    Basically, it’s my blog and I’m free to post when I please. I say just post when there’s something relevant to your blog.

    If you feel like saying it’s been a while, just do it briefly and then post about what you really want to. :)
