Comments on: Overblog? http://nicopolitan.com/2009/09/29/overblog/ It's a blog. Fri, 30 Jul 2010 16:46:10 -0700 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=abc By: Robert http://nicopolitan.com/2009/09/29/overblog/comment-page-1/#comment-1612 Robert Tue, 27 Oct 2009 23:34:20 +0000 http://nicopolitan.com/?p=1250#comment-1612 Having run many blogs at one time, it's best if you are passionate about what you are writing about. The only problem is this - if you get writers block when it comes to one topic, you can hit up another blog and crunch something out. But what happens when you are completely blank in all aspects of life? Lets face it, bad days happen. When running a collection of blogs though, it's a day to day battle to come up with content just a few blogs, but when you can't come up with any content for any blogs for over a week, it's terrible. I've found myself getting burnt out really quickly when trying to come up with content over a spectrum of topics, no matter how much my love for the topic.

I can't really summarize my day or thoughts without mentioning writing, particularly now that I'm in school for it. It seems like everyone has or ought to have a unique facet like that, music or writing, that helps set them apart from the rest of the blogging world.

You could easily reference anything in your musical life if you say "I spent all day looking for a snare drum, which was more frustrating than when these aren't the droids you're looking for!" <br><br>I don't know. Depends on your audience, but that would work for me. Depends how you write it.

Since my blog is more personal wah wah stuff I tend to lump everything together. But my passion for libraries did inspire me to start my second blog.

I do like separating them tho kinda for the same reason: most people don't want to hear me go on and on about libraries, but other librarians do. :)

Mostly because I finally jumped on the tumblr bandwagon and am loving it.<br>I've got my personal blog, my comic blog, I contribute (or had attempted to) on a geek blog, and now I've got a review blog and one for my little film business. There might be a few others floating around the interwebs.... I think I may be close to having too many blogs. Mostly because I finally jumped on the tumblr bandwagon and am loving it.

At first, I was trying to combine the whole handmade and indie designer thing with my regular blog but it became too overwhelming.

Which is kind of why I love 20SB, I love the personal aspects of it and getting to know people on a personal level. But I appreciate that when I when to talk shop, I have a folder full of content in my reader or whatever that is strictly SM. And when those two things can intersect in the right way, it's even better.<br><br>So yeah, I guess what I'm trying to say is I don't always like to mix business with pleasure, even though business can be pleasure too. Does that even make sense? No? Well it did in my head haha I have a separate blog for my Etsy obsession.

It's rated for higher temperatures than PVC, which is perfect because Internet packets run hot. That's CPVC piping.
