Sometimes Blogging Sucks.

Not every moment of blogging is bliss. That’s just the way of it.
If you can think of your blog more as a ground for adventure and experimentation instead of gospel, that’ll go down a bit easier. But you’ll have clunkers. You’ll have posts you look back on months (or years) later as cringe-worthy. You’ll piss someone off, you’ll contradict yourself, you’ll get absolute crickets for the post you were convinced was your masterpiece.
You’ll get critiques from your closest friends and complete strangers, and some of them will sting. You will hit a wall or a dry spell, and you won’t want to write anymore at all. It’s all part of the game, and so many factors contribute to it. The more you work at it, the more you find what works and what doesn’t, and you’ll shove yourself through the rough spots. You can write once a month and figure it out eventually, but it’ll take a lot longer to do.That’s your choice.
But the universal truth is that blogging is like every other pursuit. There are ups, there are downs, and they’re both important to creating a complete picture. If you’re lucky, you’ll learn something from both.
