For anyone that has ever attempted to maintain a blog, you will know how much this sucks. My blog is still very new, and in the couple of months that it’s been alive, I’ve been stationary a few times already. And if you have never experienced this, you’re either lying to yourself or are truly gifted in the art of talking shit to anyone that will listen.
This is not to be confused with writer’s block. Writing is easy. With blogging, you have to be really good, else your hit count will drop, and once it’s down and out, there is little that will bring back a disinterested person. Spectacular comebacks are so ’90s.
I must have at least seven posts sitting here in their special folder, waiting to be finished. Half of them need to be rewritten, and some of them just need a little love, but even that is proving difficult. I know exactly what I want out of each post, but getting the message across is just not happening. I either start story telling, or just putting words on the page, which is honestly not an answer.
So this is really just a force to get something out and up on the blog and trying to remind my brain exactly how the words should come out. So come on brain, get rid of all the farts. In the words on Mills Lane, “Let’s get it on!”
beginners disappointment …. noting to be distract of in updating your blog 🙂 … i’m keeping blog alive since 2005 … since than i changed many platforms, many appearances, and blog titles… the stats were like wall street diagram …. don’t think thah the problem is only in the writer’s block…that’s only the one side of the block…more often (speaking like older blogger) the problem is at readers block … readers (as the meter a fact we are writers BUT and READERS too) these days are overwhelmed with informations not every day but every min. and the orietation in that (syber) space is on the edge of it’s capacity. Now like newer before readers are satisfied with informations(most of them total junk)and now they are hungry for some “new” oxigene for their brains (mostly founding in lonelinesse) and by that they are becoming fans and constant readers of their own minds…. evrithing else is second hand and not so valid discovery.
keep – up the good work
(i’m honestly sorry that you could not understand my posts because the blog is written on the tottlay diferent language from English)
I went through this a few weeks ago! Was horrible! I had sooo much to say but just couldnt get it out! So being a little OCD and HAVING to post everyday I did lots of memes and arb posts – just to put something up!
Well, that was the point of this one… just to get *something* up… Hopefully it’ll work. 🙂
i don’t see my comment from yesterday…. but ok maybe you still haven’t approved it… poent is that more often than writers block is readers block. where readers don’t have interest to get more informations because they are overwhelmed with such, and in most cases they are becoming faithful readers of their own thoughts and everything else is second hand. Ability to move trough the (syber) space of today information is getting on the very edge of it especially to the common people (readers) …
keep up the good work.
i’m sorry that you could not understand my post because my blog is writen in totlay diferent language (Macedonian) from Englsh.
