At the beginning of the year, I picked a bunch of 2021 projects, knowing that some would stick and others would not. One of those projects was The Great 2021 Blogging Experiment. I would try to blog every weekday of 2021 and see what happened.
From January 1, 2021 until March 20, 2021, I blogged every freaking weekday. I loved it.
This week, though, I dived into revisions for the third draft of my Room Mom Com. Blogging every weekday stopped feeling fun and started feeling forced, contrived, and stale. I felt guilty about this for a few days, and then I remembered: change is good and mysterious and magical. I started The Great 2021 Blogging Experiment and I have the authority to end it whenever I damn well want.
So that’s what I’m doing.

The Great 2021 Blogging Experiment has run it’s course. I am not going to blog every weekday simply for the sake of blogging every weekday when I feel called to do other work.
How often will I blog going forward? Beats the shit out of me! Maybe I’ll blog every other day. Maybe I’ll blog weekly. Maybe I’ll actually start sending a weekly newsletter and ditch blogging altogether. I will follow my intuition and see where it leads me.
