Rethinking The Blog Thing

Hello Everyone! Did you miss me? lol, probably not.

Anyhow, Happy Memorial Day (a day late, lol) to those living in the U.S. I hope everyone had a great weekend. I know I've been out for a couple of weeks and I apologize, but the 30Day Blog Challenge sort of writed me out, so I took a little break. In my break, since I wasn't writing, I took my creative mind and focused it on the arts. I drew a kitty cat and a puppy. I drew the cat by hand but then got crazy and drew the puppy on the computer. Also while we are on the topic of what I did in these past weeks, I have a confession to make.

I failed the May Face Care Challenge or whatever it was that I was trying to do right before I finished my blog challenge. So yea, that was a no go for me. But I will still continue to use the chemical peel serum to see how it does. That other stuff was just too much. I honestly don't know how some people can have crazy routines like that and keep up with it all.

So during my time away from the Blog, I have also been thinking a lot about the blog and the direction it seems to be going as well as where I want it to go. I tried a lot of different things during the 30Day Blog Challenge, from stories and poems to K-Drama reviews and gaming videos. And because of the different things I've tried I have learned a little bit about what I do well and don't do well. Like K-Dramas reviews for example, I don't believe I am able to truly express myself (yet) in a convincing way about how good or bad these K-Dramas are, especially without giving away any spoilers. So I probably won't be doing any of those for the time being. I might try again in the future. The gaming video I think went better than I originally expected, but video editing isn't really my thing. And I'm not one-bit tech-savvy so yep no more gaming vids from me, for the time being.

Now that we know what we are not going to be seeing on the blog, what am I going to post about? Well, this is primarily a creative writing blog so more stories and poems are definitely on the way. Occasionally, I might throw in a writer's confession since they seemed to do pretty good. And I definitely do plan to continue posting about little things that happen in my life just because it's a good outlet for me. The new thing I was thinking about trying is writing articles. As a writer I feel like knowing how to write a good and engaging article is crucial, and since I don't have any experience in that, what better time to start practicing, right?

So I'm thinking that the schedule for the blog is also going to change a bit. When I first started, I tried publishing a post at least twice a week, now because I will need to do research for the articles in order to be true and factual, I will start with publishing an article once a month. If I see that I can handle that I will then post every other week. I know only publishing once a month doesn't sound frequent enough for a blog, but I don't want to be making promises I can't keep. I also plan a being busier from now on. I've started working again since quarantine started in March and I want to try increasing my presence on social media.

That's all I wanted to say for now, like aways Thank you for reading and I'll see y'all next time!
