Beginning tomorrow, I’ll be blogging on a Monday-Friday schedule and taking the weekends off. After seven years of blogging every day with few interruptions, I’m beginning to notice the early signs of blogger burnout (long periods of staring at a blank screen, repeating myself, distracting myself by searching for images of women in fishnets). Even though my entries tend to be short, quite a bit of time can be spent on finding a topic and composing a post that isn’t a complete bore. I’m also thinking that time might be put to better working on some of the long-form writing projects I’ve neglected for too long. And maybe I can put a dent in my to-read pile before it touches the ceiling.
I still might post the occasional weekend post when something truly noteworthy happens (most likely involving women in fishnets), but I’m hoping that weekends off will make this a better blog that’s worth reading for some time to come.
In that case your Monday posts had better be particularly amazing. (Cuz your readers will be going through withdrawl.) Cheers!
