Gimme Back My Groove

I’m feeling overwhelmed.  I have so much to do and so little time to get everything done.  I’m sure you’ve noticed.  My blogging has been sporadic for so long.  I’ve lost my blogging groove.

To be completely honest, I haven’t felt the desire to blog — not the way I once did.  I mean, there are days that I have things to say and there are many days when I have no idea what to blog about.

I was reading Wired magazine the other day, and there was a little blurb about blogging and how it might be time to pull the plug because it’s just not what it used to be.  It also mentioned Jason Calacanis and his decision to end his famous blog this past summer.  (Truthfully, I think he quit blogging because the Queen of Spain intimidates him with her awesomeness.)

Anyway, for a split second I thought about quitting the blog.  Then I realized how much I would miss it.  I just need some motivation.

So, I signed up for NaNoBloMo again this year to get my rear end back into the blogging big time.  But not only will I be posting daily, I will be commenting daily as well.  My goal is to comment on ten new blogs (in addition to the ones I regularly comment on) every day.  It’s time to spread the love and get back on top of the game.

And, I have a request from each of you.  To inspire some writing on my end, I am opening up the comments as your forum to ask me anything.  Is there something you want to know about me?  Do you have questions about anything I’ve written before?  Hit me with it.

I’ll do my best to post answers to your questions.  Thank you in advance for your participation!

  1. I read the same blurb in Wired magazine, but I won’t allow it to discourage me from blogging. I think you should keep blogging and keep interacting with other bloggers. We all need a little encouragment from time to time.

  2. I just asked questions to get my mojo back-it has helped a little.

    I’ll steal one of my reader’s questions (mostly because I wrote about it yesterday and it is still on the brain). What is your favorite food/foods? Who make it? Where do you eat it?

  3. What is the best book you ever read?

    (No fair saying The Bible.)
