Poor Don. This is how it begins. First, you start making little comments about how you've been busy. Then you start apologizing in each of your belated posts, while constantly reassuring your readers that you still care. Soon, people stop reading, and people stop believing. Once people stop believing, it's all over. You find yourself with a first-class ticket on a train speeding to
The Twilight Zone.
You know, I was actually getting kind of worried. I was going to give you a call if you didn't post for a full month. I expect your sister would probably tell me if something horrible happened to you, though.
Glad to see you back—revenant or not! 😄
Honestly, your experience with post series is completely relatable. Starting something with enthusiasm and then feeling “obligated” to finish it can take all the fun out of writing. It’s natural to drift toward whatever sparks your interest in the moment (and hey, knitting is a perfectly respectable detour!).
No pressure on posting schedules. Your readers are happy whenever you pop in, whether it’s part of a series, a totally new topic, or just a quick update. Write when you feel inspired, skip when you don’t, and don’t let unfinished series hold you hostage.
Looking forward to whatever comes next—whenever it comes. 😊 - www.ftworthwindshields.com
