I often have internal struggles about this blog. Should I keep writing here? Should I write somewhere else? Should I write only privately? Should I migrate to my tumblr? My friend Angie paid a high compliment to the snippets I post here, and I often have the same internal debate that she mentions here. There are so many mediums nowadays to post and share our thoughts. I think about posting a comparison of all the ways I "get things done" - online checklists, syncing private journals across devices, managing email addresses, managing email content, attempting to code, building things, keeping track of tips and recipes, etc. Sometimes it's a chore just to keep track of the WAYS we keep track of things! I am super interested in what tools people use and how people work.
Anyway. No matter what we all decide to do- here's to evolution, and constantly challenging ourselves to discover new ways of being creative, and/or using the old ways to discover other avenues of creation.
I often struggle with blogging too. For me it's less about the medium (although I do sometimes contemplate a Tumblr) and more about content. How personal vs. professional. How rough vs. polished.
ReplyDeleteIn the end, I usually come back to: "Just do what feels right. It's okay if it changes over time." In fact, I think that's the beauty of blogging. It evolves with us. :)
