The attempt to post again



A week down and I’ve not had a moment to think about updating the blog. Either that or I don’t have an opinion on too many things. In which case this blog is just a complete waste of space. Or I haven’t gotten the hang of it yet. It’s hard to walk the line between writing a personal journal, and writing something that’s of interest to other people who might read it.

Right now I’m struggling with how much context to provide. Do I write it as a vent saying just what I want, or do I provide background information so that my post reads like a story and then people can make sense of it? And if I do that, do I selectively tell the story, do I embellish to make it more interesting, or delete what occurs to me as superfluous?

What’s an ideal post length? As long as I want to write, or short so people don’t get bored?

How totally meta is this – blogging about blogging?
