The Future of This Blog

I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about this blog, and what direction I want its future to be in. On November 4, I put my blog on its third hiatus as of August. Considering I went from January – August with only a one-week hiatus in May, this says a lot about how my blogging habits aren’t working out with the demands of my personal life, and that some changes are necessary if I want to successfully continue blogging.
I have been doing lots of brainstorming/researching in the last couple of days, and I plan on doing loads more before I make any final decisions. I’m not totally sure where all of this planning will lead me, but I am excited to see what changes I decide upon and how they will help shape my blog. However, it is pretty safe to say that my blog will be experiencing a total and complete overhaul and will be newly relaunched in time for the new year. Relaunched with the possibility of a Twitter contest, perhaps…
I do know that I want to wrap up a year’s worth of blog entries somehow before I start my overhaul project, and all the changes I will need to make will probably result in a Maintenance Mode look until all the adjustments are completed. But I have plenty of time to figure this all out, and once I do, those that read this blog will be the first to know ;)

I completely understand where you’re coming from. Sometimes you just need to take a break and restructure. I stopped blogging for about two months (maybe more?), and it was the right thing for me to do. Before that break, I was posting maybe 2 or 3 entries a month. Now I’m not posting every day, or even close, but I feel a lot better about blogging.
I’m excited to see what you do with this blog. :D

I totally understand where you’re coming from as well. I wasn’t any good at regular blogging even after setting up a blogging schedule. I took a break, really thought about it a lot, did all the brainstorming/researching stuff, and came back with a better idea of what to do/where to go with my blog. I can’t say I’m blogging regularly now, as I’ve only really started again last week, but now that I have a better idea of what I want to do with my blog, I think things will be much easier, even without a blogging schedule (as that, for me, took all the fun out of blogging).
I’m excited and can’t wait to see what you do with your blog! :D

I’m looking forward to what you have in store for us!
