Holy Crap, Life has been Crazy…
I have not written anything on Medium in a month. Or more. I’m not even sure. So, after getting all pumped to post regularly and feed the Internet with wonderful tidbits of wisdom, and generate a loyal following or wonderful readers…
I dropped the ball. I left everyone hanging. I disappeared from the webisphere.
I do have a good reason for my absence. I have not been slacking off on some beach in the Bahamas with an umbrella drink in one hand and a paperback in the other. I’ve been writing.
I am writing for several publications and maintaining my regular 9 to 5 job. And still relocating big boats on weekends. And… and… stuff.
That means there is no shortage of content for articles, whether they are intended for physical publication or an online audience. I think my hang-up is that 75% of it has been boating related and I’m not sure people here want to listen to me spout off about floating objects day after day. That means I need to adjust my focus a bit.
So, I hereby pledge to do better. Seems like I’m always pledging to do better, but I mean it. If I’m going to keep pushing forward with my attempt to make a career out of writing I need to be more consistent. I need to learn what people want to read and what they don’t, and find the voice with which I can deliver that content.
Maybe I need to start a separate page just for boating stuff. And another for animal stuff. And keep this one for life stuff. Maybe that’s the key.
Thoughts? Comments? Bring ‘em on. I obviously need all the help I an get.
