Had a fella make a comment the other day– and it’s not like I’m mad at him or anything, so I’m not going to track the comment down to single him out– that he was amazed at how much I was posting. And… well, yeah, he’s got a point. When this goes live it’s going to be my 21st post of January, and only the 10th day of January… and there’s a really good chance that I’ll have the 22nd post of January written within the next hour or so– which means that I’m working a full day ahead, since I’m putting this post together at around 8:00 PM on Thursday night. And it ain’t like I’m not going to come home from school on Friday with nothing to say, either, so as of right now a full day in advance we’re looking at three posts on Friday.
There were three today as well, although one of them was a single word and a link. And a bunch of those “multiple” posts, particularly in January, have been picture posts of some kind or another, which I kind of think of as free. But, all the same, I don’t want to get, like, annoying.
Honest question, and there’s enough of you that have been commenting lately that I’m fairly confident that I’ll get a decent answer to this: do y’all think I’m posting too much? What sort of frequency do you want to see from blogs you read? Once a day? Two or three? Anytime any damn thought jumps into my head and I’m near enough to a keyboard to blab about it a bit?
(I’m fully aware what the best answer is: post as often as you can, so long as the posts are good, and post less often if you’re writing crap. That said I’m not necessarily the best judge of whether my shit is interesting or not. I’ll have a thousand followers by the end of the week and I can’t figure out why any of you think anything I’m saying is worth reading. But here’s your chance to tell me to can it if I’m blowing up your mailboxes or your twitterings or something like that too often. Is there a frequency you want to see? How often do YOU blog?)
Looking forward to the conversation, but keep in mind I’m not gonna be around to participate in it until I’m off from work, unless I get a minute to check in at lunchtime.
Oh, and I don’t say this often enough: thanks for reading.
