Q- You have been blogging for a long time. How do you not get tired of it? Have you ever thought maybe it takes to much time and I should just quit? How do you get over the slump?
A - It has been a while yes, nearly two years on November actually :) I think that everyone eventually reaches that phase where maybe you need a break. It depends on the blogger I think. If you find yourself getting tired of blogging then that's something you seriously need to take a step back from and evaluate. This is often the time when you'll see bloggers quit blogging. There is more than just the one reason for this. For example; real life has taken over, the genre they used to read doesn't click with them anymore, maybe they feel that bloggers have changed, or it can just be a personal reason overall.
None of these apply to me right now and I can't really imagine them doing so in the future, but who knows? It's more to me than just "blogging". You see, getting tired of blogging, quitting blogging would have a very profound affect on me. I have gained so much from this experience, grown so much that I can't imagine ever getting tired of it, and if that day came; then yes, I would leave, because if I didn't and I stuck around regardless I would be doing a disservice to my readers. Most of all to answer this part of your question I have to say that the main thing that keeps my head up and pushes me to come back every time are my readers; the people I have met through blogging.
No, never. Sure there are times when the work piles up and it gets tough to balance the two, where you are stressing over reviews and something else you should be doing that day, but that's where it ends. Quitting blogging has never crossed my mind. And I think "if" it crosses yours then take a break, think it over and then see how you feel. If a week or so has passed and you have the urge to return, to check up the blog, then you know the answer :)
Ahh I did have a bit of a blogging slump once, I was rather silent about it though. The reason for it wasn't particularly blogging but reading. I couldn't get into any book that I read so I took a step back, breathed and waited for the right book to come along. Perfect Chemistry dealt with my reading slump perfectly; the rest sorted out itself. Hope that helps. =)
Have a question? Go HERE and I will answer it on the next PAROI.
PS; WHO WATCHED VAMPIRE DIARIES OH MY GOSH!! *DIES* Why does he always have to be the hero urgh!! I would have rather preferred it if Klaus killed him off, then a certain two can be together without feeling guilty. I know, I know I'm being evil, BUT CAN YOU BLAME ME. Gah that KISS, you know that moment when he says to Elena! "You should have met me in 1864, you would have liked me” That's it! I was a goner, crying and laughing at the same time like a crazy woman. I should have gushed with you guys in the vlog but totally forgot. What were your thoughts on the whole situation and THE ENDING! You know I had the moment where I gasped thinking WTF? But then was like OH... really? Like how random was that ending? I hope they actually have some significance and weren't thrown back in for shock value ya know? Ladies before I go I just want to say that I completely understand but Damon is taken, *I CALL DIBS*
