Reasons Why I am A Terrible Human (And a Promise. Stick around for that)

Right. People. Let’s be honest.

I’m not a very good human. In fact, I’m probably terrible.

And this is why:

Every so often, in this strange wilderness known as “real life”, I find myself saying ‘Yeah, I have a blog’.

This then leads to an incredibly awkward conversation that goes a bit like this:

            ‘Oh, so what do you write?’

            ‘All kinds of things really. A bit of poetry. A bit of fan fiction. Just occasional stuff. Autobiographical bits. You know, that kind of stuff...’

            ‘That sounds good! How often do you post?’

And this is when I have to shut up.

Because (this may have escaped your attention, but if not… I'll say it aloud) I hardly ever post.

I have said so many times in this blog that I’ll try harder to post and I've even set myself challenges (ie, the three poems in a month that I did about a year ago) just to inspire myself into writing and getting it online.

But it hardly ever works. 

Please know I do write. I just hardly ever upload. This is because my blog was hacked about six months ago and that got to me a bit. I’ve been slightly scared about blogging since. Which is odd. 

But never mind…

Because ladies and gentlemen, for the umpteenth – I RETURN.

Sort of like a phoenix rising from the ashes. Over and over again. 

I adore this blog. I absolutely do. And it upsets me that I’m not more committed to it.

So, right now. Here. I promise that I will write and upload a blog EVERY WEEK FOR THE NEXT YEAR.

Okay. Now I’ve said it. I’ve made the commitment.

Thanks for reading and stick around.

Change’s a coming.
