Enjoyable Blogging
February 2nd, 2007 by HenI was remarking in an IM conversation that the last few blogs have been more enjoyable to write than previous attempts over the last N months because for some reason I kept having the feeling that I should be writing articles and not just random witterings about what I was doing. I’m a crap preacher, so thinking I should be trying to be bringing forth wise thoughts is a complete joke.
Articles are one way conversation - it’s dull. Even when people are adding comments, it’s usually to discuss the subject of the preaching and not to engage in discussion with the author. Blogging is about the articles being the elements of a conversation, so it seems fit that when I start doing things properly it feels much better.
A subsequent thought was that the good blog entries that become articles come out of conversations causing enlightenment and not out of sitting waiting for Eureka.

Nah, this is pretty dull. You shoulda written an article about how to write blog posts that draw in more comments instead.
