Replying to: Blaugust Motivation – Where Do All These Words Come From?
This will be 27 days of blogging in a row for me. I feel good about keeping it up until the end of Blaugust, but not much longer than that. I am starting to struggle here.
I feel like I don’t have any room to breathe. I miss having the time and space to sit with an idea and let it develop. There is certainly a place, in writing, to just pour words out without giving yourself a chance to think about them. Plenty of my posts have been that. But I can’t do that all the time.
Also, as much as I do enjoy blogging, I don’t enjoy it enough to keep it at a high enough priority to make room for it every day. I want breathing room for other things too. As a matter of fact, I would be in bed at this moment if I were not writing this.
I’m not sure where I’m going with this one. I don’t really have a point I’m trying to make. And I’m going to leave this in, because I also don’t have much of an editing process beyond making sure there’s no red lines under any words I didn’t make up. And that gets me many more things finished and published than if I revised them. I’m fairly certain I’ve mentioned some variation of that before, and I’m fairly certain I will do it again. Laziness is the path to productivity.
In conclusion, I am tired and it is past my bedtime. Goodnight.
