Is a Posting an Event?

The hardest part of blogging is finding your voice, and making the process of posting a habit.  Most of the time I don’t hesitate to write but I still get hung up when finding worthwhile events to post - and how to describe them.  If you think of starting a blog, spend a lot of time thinking about the commitment.

So then you get caught in a mind-game.  Should I post about this?  What about that?  And how should I describe it?

The minute you start thinking about it you’re screwed.  Your deliberations force you to postpone a day’s post (then a second day’s, etc).  Before you know it a week has passed and you haven’t posted.

And now you’re doubly screwed. 

My advice? Realise it’s never going to be right and that’s okay.  Blogging is about two parties - you and the reader.  If it doesn’t work for you, it won’t work for the reader.  They’ll see through your artificial attempts then slam you (or stop visiting altogether). 

So be real and be frequent - and don’t make posting an event.  Make it a fun form of self-expression.  You’ll enjoy it more - so will your readers!
