Couple of days ago, I was reading some of my old posts, reorganizing my blog when the thought hit me that damnit how long it has been since I wrote anything here, infact how long it has been since I wrote anything. Ofcourse there have been some posts on the food blog but those too have been far and few. I went through a series of emotions at that time from being sad and depressed to being angry on myself. Blogging has been a medium which has given me a lot, in terms of friends, in terms of self satisfaction, in terms of creative outlet, in terms of recognition and I felt that I have cheated the medium that gave me so much… A little extreme reaction may be yes but that is what I went through at that time. Once I slept over it I had a madder better plan. I had decided that I will write everyday in the coming month, the post can be on this blog, the food blog or the photo blog. I have done blogging marathons before, succeeded some, failed some but mostly at the end of the month the feeling has been great.
When I posted that I am thinking of doing this on FB a couple of friends showed interest, I made a group and soon our number grew to 21 (as of now its standing at 39 members) all of us with a determination of bringing blogging back in our lives 🙂
But what makes this one even more maddening is the fact that this month, this December is going to be super busy for me, its a month when the business of baking is at an all time high but nonetheless I am hoping that I will make it through specially if you my dear readers keep pushing me through
So with this I leave you with a few Rights of a Reader, something I saw on FB and want to treasure forever… the reader in me approves of this a lot 😀
