My return to blogging this week was rough. I was embattled by writer's block, left the few posts I made mostly incomplete, and was unable to even get a handfull of others off the ground, some having nothing beyond titles and a thesis sentence.
I've been reading more blogs lately. I was struck by Pendrops today as Krista described her tussle with writer's block and her desire to be published. I'm not the only struggling blogger out there! Well that's obvious when you consider how many blogs succumb to ascetism by their authors within 90 days. I'm over that hump though, so shouldn't it be easier to continue writing? Maybe I'm spread to thin, and ought to just maintain one blog? Maybe I put to much pressure on myself to generate more words than necessary?
All I know right now is that blogging is not feeling much like an adventure at the moment, more like the third day home sick and I'm tired of everything that's on TV!

Blogging is a lot like marriage - at first it sounds like fun, but over time it's a drag.
