To blog or not to blog
That is the question
To blog, or not to blog: that is the question:
Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer
the slings & arrows of outrageous spambots,
or take arms against a sea of trolls,
and by opposing end them?
Sorry, wrong meeting.
How to blog when you’ve nothing to say?
All you’re really doing is raking over the coals of what you’ve already written.
Isn’t that what writing is?
All writing is rewriting. So make your thoughts and share your thoughts and do not care at all about them because it’s fair to say that no-one else does.
That’s not the point. That’s not the point at all. What is the point then?
The point is to keep going, to say what is in you to say, because nobody else is going to say it exactly the way you do.
Once More With Feeling
Time and again, I feel like I don’t know how to write fiction. I balk at it.
But talking about it and fearing it are not the same as doing it. So do it badly and eventually do it well.
Copy others. Write out their words so you get a feel for how it is to write words that are stories.
Because this masturbatory crap is getting old.
