Everytime year or so I come up with a tired epiphany that I need to write more. The fact is I suck at writing, but it brings me joy.
Despite my affection for trying to get my thoughts out into words. I begin to lack motivation and become reluctant to write after a troll or two. My only other source of feedback is my wife who trolls my sentence structure, spelling, extraneous use of commas and general grammar. Her criticism is constructive and necessary, but is just mixed in with exacerbated sighs, eye rolling and the muttering of pointed education quips.
My new goal is to at least write three or more times every week. There is no objective other than to write whatever I feel like at the moment. One post could be about kids or tech, and the next could political in nature (non-partisan I don’t more trolls). I may push a product I recently purchased that I find useful in my everyday life. This format won’t gain readership as it will be all over the board, but at least I will be writing.
Feel free to give me all your feedback. I want the negative, positive, counterpoint. I just ask your negative feedback be constructive in nature and kind to anyone else who may post feedback.
Note: I went through some old posts while converting over from WordPress to Jekyll and trashed a lot of old stuff that was no longer pertinent, or broken due to third party content in page.
