I have about a half-dozen things starred in my Google Reader to blog about, comment on, or create something inspired by, but I’m increasingly finding myself not wanting to put it here because this is the main page of my website.
I have a new website design ready to go, but I’ve been waiting to go live with it because I wasn’t sure how difficult it would be to keep this blog active, but shift it off the main page. I’m going to find out in the next couple of days. So if everything disappears, that’s what happened. And if everything disappears, don’t count on me putting it all back like it was. I might just say, fine, start new with post number one!
Once things are changed, my homepage should feature my art and design work more prominently, along with a summary of where my prints and things can be bought. (because, oh yes, I’d like to totally and completely sell out. Eventually)
I know not posting is a terrible thing. I don’t mind if people post rarely or frequently, but I do think the good form is to find the rhythm and regularity that works for you and stick with it to give the whole blog thing an air of NOT being a total half-assed afterthought. I’m not even sure if I care if people read or follow me regularly, as long as I’m represented on the web. Ultimately, I guess I’m a bad, bad blogger – which is why I don’t want it to be the first thing people see, but I still want it to exist so I can yell ineffectually about the stuff that bothers me, and was psuedo-poetic about the things I love, and there. It’s documented.
I think a lot of bloggers go through the same thing. It’s not just about finding one’s voice, it’s also about finding exactly that room in which you feel comfortable speaking without having to think TOO much about how scandalized the Mormon friends will be if they stumble in, the poor dears.
