Saturday, March 21, 2009It's Facebook's FaultI know, I know. As Lori was kind enough to point out, it's almost April. Bleah! Thing is, I've finally gotten myself to a place where I'm writing productively, consistently--growing in my craft and continuing to make connections and press forward. This blog, on the other hand, is a rant-place for life as a mom, life as a writer, and life in general. And I find that I simply don't want to pour myself into something that can so easily be done via Facebook. Seriously. Who wants to pull up Blogger, think her way through a coherent post, proofread and post it, when she can pop onto Facebook and write a teeny-tiny update? And post pictures with ease? And--the best part of all--keep up with all her Facebook friends at the click of a mouse? Sure, this blog proves, at times, to be cathartic. But it's not interactive. Let's face it--comment boxes don't count. And I intensely love--crave, even--the interaction that Facebook provides. So blame Facebook. There. I've said it. I feel much better now. Except I still feel compelled to post pictures of Molly. And I think I might want to update you on my progress as an Aspiring Author. And there's always a fine example of husbandly idiocy nearby, with which to craft a ridiculous-but-true story. So I'm sure I'm not finished round these here parts. Just finding more productive outlets for my writing. (I've started my fourth novel, if you've been counting.) That about covers it. I'm not making any promises this time, since the egg on my face is sticky enough, thank you. Hugs to you all (yes, I see you on my subscription list, you wonderful, faithful, die-hard readers and friends!). Labels: life |

4of my readers are feeling chatty:
Yay!!
I popped in and reflexively closed the window before realizing that there was a new post! Glad you're still around...and on Facebook too. :)
How odd. Just checked yesterday...after quite some time. And then today, I see this on FB...and find it here as well...dated March 21st.
Bleah! ;o)
I miss you Jill!
How's this for having been sucked into FB: I only just now got around to checking my blog subscriptions, and October is nearly over, and here I am seeing this post from March! I don't blog anymore either, and for one of the same reasons - NO TIME. Funny how your life fits better into a FB status box when you have a 2 year old in your life. ;) Who has time to write a blog post?? <3 xoxo
