If you go back through my posts, you can see where I was running out of time to get something written so I could have a post for that day. I think I made it to 20 posts and just kept going, but the weeks became harder to find time to write anything worth reading, and so the quality of my blog suffered a little. Although, it’s still just mind-dumping from me, and so counts as “real content” … right?

I was think that when I get to 100 posts, I’ll just call it a marathon and quit. Not quit blogging, but quit streak-writing. But part of me is wondering if the momentum is good for me. This is the whole “writing a lot vs. writing quality” kind of question. Do I have more blog posts, or do I take off the need to have written something every day and maybe write better posts? But there’s a good chance that once I stop writing, I will just stop. I’ll forget.

I think I need to sit down and have another chat with myself about it, because, on one hand, sometimes great stuff comes out and I don’t think it would have if it wasn’t for me “needing” to write something, but on the other hand, realising I haven’t done many “proper” posts in a while is a bit frustrating. Some of the stuff I have written could have probably just gone to my Twitter or Instagram, rather than my blog. Not that I really use them anyway.

This will likely be part of the culling, and I need to decide if this is something that I can do “Now” or something that “Can Wait”.
