It's Monday....and it is cold here in the UK. That has not stopped me blogging for all you lovely people!! It's quote day today and the quote I have chosen I think will apply to many of you out there. I received an email from the lovely Kym from Travel Babbles re: a post of hers lately where she was questioning her want to blog. We've all been there, wondered...Do we want to blog anymore? Do people like what we're writing? Am I still myself? She responded and passed on this quote to me.
In my year of blogging I have had a few moments of 'I have nothing to say' and I haven't blogged. Sometimes it could be a day, sometimes a week. Either way I wondered what was wrong. Then I realised nothing was wrong, I just was not in any kind of mindset to write.
As the quote states, when you take effort in writing, it is read with pleasure. I want whatever I write to be enjoyed, be it by one person or 100 people. I don't want to write something which people click and think, oh ... she can't be bothered she's just filling space. There are many discussions regarding when to blog and how many times a week but it all comes down to yourself. Yes, readers are important but if you aren't enjoying it and just posting for the sack of it. It becomes obvious. I would always take "Hmm, Missy hasn't posted in a while," to "Woah...this is rubbish." Sometimes, just like in day to day life we need time alone and that's the same for blogging. I hope those of you going through a bit of a writing block aren't too worried...writing never leaves you and it will come back but don't feel the need to please others. We all understand that in this blogging community!
