Unsustainable
By JC | November 30, 2011
Whew! Thirty days in NaBloPoMo, and thirty blog posts. (If you count this one. Which I will.) What have I learned from this experiment?
Posting daily is possible. But it’s not sustainable, not if I want posts with non-trivial knitting content. I mean, really, who wants multiple blog posts that all essentially say, “Nope, still not getting gauge yet”?
But blogging doesn’t have to be a chore. Posts don’t have to be rambling dissertations; they can actually be more satisfying when they’re focused and to the point.
And blogging might be a way for me to keep tabs on ideas. More to the point: searching through my blog for posts tagged with “ideas” might be a way to pull myself out of knitting doldrums, when I feel like knitting but I can’t find a single WIP or UFO to hold my interest. When in doubt, start a new project, right?
So I’ll keep on blogging, not on a daily basis but hopefully more frequently than my long-term average of just 3 or 4 times a month. As always… we’ll see what happens.
