It's bizarre really.
For one reason or another, I stopped blogging for a long while. But I've spent the afternoon in a flurry of writing-stuff-for-blog.
Which means that I now have backlog of postable-goodness that I didn't have prior to today.
I'm under no illusions that I'll continue to have anything to say; indeed, it seems unlikely given my past hit-rate. But maybe a trimming down of expectations was all that was needed.
For many moons now, I've been writing very long and ambitious entries that I've been... whilst not famously, by any means... unable to finish.
I'll let you into a secret. It may look like a massive hiatus, but I have been blogging. The problem I've had has been specifically due to finishing the posts.
I have quite a few posts where I've written the first few thousand words of a blogtacular epic, but haven't gotten around to finishing them off. Once I've sketched out an entry that I want to write, it's almost good enough in terms of getting something off my chest. That it remained unposted and unfinished wasn't seen (at least by me) as something of a huge problem (which in retrospect...).
I think that what I really need to do is be more focussed and worry less about the various intricate verbal shenanigans that I've traditionally wanted to post here. I simply don't have the time, and should just go for the short-and-snappy.
Of course, my short-and-snappy might still stretch somewhat, but by comparsion they're nothing but ephemeral whimsy.
"Ephemeral Whimsy". It's what blogging's about, isn't it..?
Anyway. That's what it'll be from now on. Articles? My arse.
