A Spot of Guest Blogging

Are ideas that scarce? I find myself asking – to myself each time I pause to post something here and then give up, because I find it an extremely daunting task. I said I’d give it a shot, so here I am. Once again I find myself without a proper idea, so I thought I’d give my two cents on guest blogging.

After thinking (I should officially list it as my hobby, as I seem to spend countless hours thinking), I think I managed to put my finger on it. Actually, my finger merely brushed it before it disappeared into oblivion, but I think I got it this time. At least some of it…

Now blogging in a cool community like this one is as cool as it gets. It’s like you belong somewhere (if you find the sense of belonging somewhere to be important), and it is fun to watch the blog grow with all the different ideas and writing styles. And if your hobby includes reading blogs, then all the better as you have more stuff to read as there are more contributors!

I noticed I’ve been rather quiet on this blog and also on another blog AHD and I share. It’s pretty difficult to sit down and pinpoint the exact reason for this quietness. It might be the lack of something profound to say – I’m slightly prone to silliness and turn almost everything into some sort of joke. And with all the problems that are happening in the world how do you post something silly?

    I feel the same. Like its ok to write something silly on your own blog because no one is really forced to read it, but on a communal blog you are, at the very least, implying it should be read by the other blog contributers.

    However I will say that silliness is often how we keep going with all these things going on in the world.

    Its quite strange that you would think that you need to somehow 'up your game' when you post here.

    That really is not the case, the reason anyone was invited to join this blog was that their writing on their own blog captivated me.

    So basically write as you would normally :)

    Also, all of you have the ability to add authors. So if you feel someone has what it takes, and will contribute, please invite them.

    It just occurred to me.

    You are a co author.

    This is not a spot of guest blogging!!! This is your blog too :)
