Nope?

Well, never mind, I forgive you

One thing I found out last year when I was trying to blog about something new every day, is that it is extremely hard to do. I doff my hat to those who can do it, and have done it for years. It’s not as though I have nothing to talk about either. I have plenty of ideas for what to write about, but (for me) it’s a lot of work to convert the random thoughts swirling around in my head into coherent prose that people might be interested in reading.

To make matters worse, of course, I have an issue with brevity–or rather, the lack of it. The secret of most bloggers who post several times a day is that the majority of their posts are typically just a couple of sentences long. I find that hard to do.

Hmm… Perhaps I should practice more on Twitter…

Anyway, we’ll see how things go this time. I have visitors coming to stay in a couple of days, so my postings might be a little bit random over the next couple of weeks, but looking back at the stats,  I am encouraged by the bump in viewership of the blog when I was posting regularly (even after a relatively short time) and I would like to see what happens if I can succeed with a more sustained effort.

Oh, and I’m thinking of changing the name of the blog. I’ve never been particularly fond of the name Rational Dreaming. It sounds like something akin to lucid dreaming, or some kind of woo-like remote viewing, but it’s tough to think of a great name for a blog and be lucky enough that nobody is sitting on the domain name on the off-chance that they might actually get round to using it some day. Anyway, I finally found one I like, though since I haven’t bought the domain yet, I will refrain from announcing it just yet. I’ve just paid for another year of rationaldreaming.com, so there isn’t any particular hurry.
