The Return...

11/12/2016

 
In recent weeks, I've come to realize that I really miss blogging. I blogged quite heavily from about 2006-2012 but struggled to find readers. I jumped to Twitter and Instagram and decided to finally give up blogging. It seemed pointless with only a few readers.
Yet even without any readers, I'm back to blogging. And if the audience doesn't come, I'm okay with that. Here's why I'm blogging again...
  • I like the discipline of writing a few posts a week consistently. It helps me write better when I write regularly and if I'm not blogging, I often struggle to write anything on a regular basis. Blogging kept me consistent and that made me write more and write better.
  • Neither Twitter or Instagram are the place to develop a nuanced, in-depth look at things. And while many in our culture today want fast, quick and short, long-form text hasn't died yet and I enjoy writing it. When I want to share a recent book, something in the news, or something God is teaching me, I need a different forum to write out the thoughts that are too big for a tweet or a photo caption.
  • I want to promote my podcasts and other free Bible study aids as well as the Bible Girl Facebook group. That's easier to do on Pinterest and other sites when you have a webpage or blog that can act as a landing page. I hope to use this blog as a more in-depth way of getting the Podcast message out.
  • I just like having my writing out there, even when it's just book reviews or a rant or two. 
And so, I begin blogging again. I hope to do three or four posts a week on a variety of topics. And I hope a few readers find the blog and enjoy what I write. But even if it's just for me, I write on...
