The Great Blog Debate

Am I spending my time wisely when I blog? This question often comes up among writers, and the views are split. There are numerous writers who have gained fame and recognition without ever having a blog. There are others who have made a name for themselves in the blogging world and then moved into the publishing world. Which do I want to be? Which do YOU want to be?

My original goal, when I had two blogs, was to post once a week at each. Life got in the way, and I’m lucky if I post twice a month. Then I began this blog. (What was I thinking?!) I’d still like to post once a week at each blog, but I have very limited time to write. (Which means our homeschooling is going well… and that’s good!) My writing afternoon (Wednesday) is very productive. I’ve completed five articles in four weeks, and roughed out two others!

You may be thinking, “Why doesn’t she just write some blog entries on Wednesdays?” I can’t do that– I write for paying markets on those afternoons. Today is Tuesday. I have a few moments of free time while the children have lunch, so I’m writing now. Perhaps this will become my blog day! Check back next week and see if I stay on track!
