I've been posting a lot less frequently this year as well, but then I don't have too many readers to disappoint... Either way, there's no reason you shouldn't be allowed to flex to whatever suits you best. Best wishes!

I haven't been as prolific this summer, but I'll probably write more in winter. I feel like I "should" write more, but when I start thinking about it, I don't really "want" to write more. How often can you say the same thing? But I know that inspiration will hit at some point, probably about when the rains return!

I definitely agree that bogging should not be an obligation but a creative outlet but only when time allows and not at the expense of spending time with family.anniebikeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02737989268380822651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3050916568736413860.post-10007134935103470382015-08-30T04:09:02.780-04:002015-08-30T04:09:02.780-04:00What Trevor said.

It isn't that my love of cycling changes, but rather that other things take precedence and then I begin to feel guilty for not writing. Some days, it does seem easier to shut it down. <br /><br />I hope that you'll continue to write - when you have the time - and not feel an obligation to anyone other than yourself and your family. That is what truly matters. Readers will pop in when it works for you, and I think we all understand that life happens outside of a computer screen.<br /><br />I hope you take some time to just enjoy as summer (yikes!) is already coming to an end.

For whatever reasons, I've been posting a lot for the past year-plus. Then again, most of those posts have been on one of my blogs--Midlife Cycling--while I've written less frequently on my other blog (Transwoman Times).<br /><br />You're all about quality, not quantity, and we wouldn't want you any other way!Justine Valinottihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10852069587181432102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3050916568736413860.post-76138366661684247682015-08-29T11:11:21.407-04:002015-08-29T11:11:21.407-04:00There is a natural ebb and flow in blogging that a...There is a natural ebb and flow in blogging that affects us all at times Annie....<br />Rest assured that whether you blog once a week or once a month your fellow bloggers and readers will still be here to catch up with you.......TrevorW�� https://www.blogger.com/profile/13212954091289189979noreply@blogger.com
