A few days ago, Stephanie over at A BEAUtiful Mess wrote a post about the evolution of a blog, her blog in particular. And it got me thinking...
I think Delightfully Dunn might be dead. Not dead-dead like forever, but soap-opera-dead, like it's going to die off and take a little break but then suddenly be resurrected and come back to life three seasons later.
Don't get me wrong - I love blogging. And I get so excited when I see new baby blogs getting started. Equally as excited as when I read an awesome post from one of my go-to bloggers who has been doing this for what seems like forever. I also love that blogging has now officially spanned across all social media networks and that I can keep up with my fav bloggers via the twit and Instagram.
What I don't love right now is writing blog posts. For whatever reason - blogger is on my shit list. I just can't stand to open it. And then to have to click on "new post". Gah. I dread it like I use to dread online Blackboard assignments (which is a lot, in case you were wondering.)
I know I've mentioned this a few times in the past few months - but I am in a blogger's block like you wouldn't even believe. My goal this week is to write one post every day. Hopefully 3 out of 5 of them will actually be good posts. We shall see.
I feel so silly having to set such a goal for myself. Writing a blog post used to be something I looked forward to, not something I had to "pencil in" and make myself do. But if I can get back on the post-like-a-normal-blogger wagon maybe it'll be fun again. I like being a blogger and I'm not quite ready to give that up.
Here's to hoping.

As promised.

Gah...I HATED Blackboard!!
ReplyDeleteSorry you`re in a rut! I`m in one myself. And everytime I do manage to write one, it read it over like, "that sounds so dumb" haha. Just go at your own pace, or it will feel like work! Blech!
ReplyDeleteI know how you feel. Last week, I did the same thing... I made myself post everyday. You'll get it back in good time :)
ReplyDeleteI feel ya girl. I dreaded writing the "catch-up" post from yesterday because I had gotten so out of the groove of blogging. Maybe something super awesome and exciting will happen that will get us back on the wagon!
ReplyDeleteI definitely get in blogging ruts. It does help to have an ongoing list of topic ideas, and I pretty much take pictures of everything and then scroll through Picasa going, "Did I write about that yet? Hmm..."
ReplyDeleteDon't force it too much, though... this should be a fun hobby! You'll get back to it sometime! :)

I know what you mean! Although most of the time I have loads to say but no time to put posts together. Well keep doing what you do. Life will surely give you fresh things to write about : )
