canyonwalker: Message in a bottle (blogging)
[personal profile] canyonwalker
At the start of the month I posted some stats about my blogging. February had been a relatively slow month for me; I wrote 51 journal entries for an average of "only" 1.8 posts per day. That's slow-ish because over the past 15 months I've averaged a hair over 2.0 per day. Well, enough about February; what about March?

At the start of the month I predicted March would be another slow month, slower even than February. Wow, was I wrong! Across March I had 67 posts, for an average of almost 2.2 per day. That's not my bloggiest month ever. It's not even in the top 5. I believe it's #7. But it's above my recent average... and well above my goal of 1/5/day. And it's in a month when I didn't have any travel. Remember, travel drives a lot of my blogging.

If I didn't travel in March what did I blog abou? Well, I had a travel blog backlog from February. I finished it off only 18 days late. 😅 But even so, that was only 10 blogs in March out of the month's 67 total. What else was there? Well, I caught up on some TV/streaming blogs, too. Those were another 11. Ten and 11... that's still less than one-third of 67. The rest, a majority, were a smattering of journals about current events, both national and international; food and drink; and other things I thought about.

"So there's no focus to this blog," you may note. "What are we subscribing to?"

There's actually a mistaken assumption in that. When you subscribe to a person's blog, or to someone's Twitter feed, or Facebook, Insta, etc., you're not subscribing to a topic. You're subscribing to a person. Here you're subscribing to me.

Right on! I like this perspective, and it's an important one to how I think about people I follow here vs other social media. Here always feels more like I'm actually building friendships and connections --even if they're slightly one-sided ones (being as I read more than I comment and I haven't been posting very much myself)

I appreciate your blogging

I consumed those 67 blog posts in March like candy. I usually comment only when I have something to contribute, so my replies are rare. Do know, however, the diversity and depth of your writing make for quality reading material. I appreciate your blog!
