I’ve been around the blogosphere (is that still a word?) long enough to know that when a blogger says “wow, it’s been a long time since my last post,” or “I’m going to start posting more often!” it’s often a sign that the blog is about to fade. Plenty of my secondary blogs have met a similar fate. But I’ve been\u00a0blogging here on One Thousand and One Parsecs for the last eight years, dammit, and I’m not going anywhere.<\/p>\n
That said, I’ve totally been neglecting this place, and that needs to change. One blog post every couple of weeks is not enough.<\/p>\n
But I’m wondering: what kind of stuff do you guys want to read? Discussions of story tropes? Thoughts on reading and publishing? General geekiness and just-for-fun weirdness? Politics and controversy? Or general updates on my current WIPs?\u00a0Also, do you guys generally like reading longer, more thoughtful posts, or shorter, more concise posts?<\/p>\n
When I started this blog back in 2007, it\u00a0was mostly just for me. That gave it a more authentic voice, I think, because I wasn’t trying to please anyone except myself. However, now that I have something of a readership, I want to write for you guys too.\u00a0Ideally, I’d like to\u00a0keep that authentic voice while sharing something of value, not only to myself, but to you guys as well.<\/p>\n
Either way, I need to be more consistent about blogging. I’ve installed a plugin that will help to schedule posts, and plan to post something every Monday and Thursday at a minimum. I’ll\u00a0try posting mornings, see how that works out.<\/p>\n
Some things I’d like to blog about:<\/p>\n
