Five Foot Two, Eyes of Blue

Apr. 8th, 2008 09:48 am Yes, I'm aware of the irony...

but I had to share.  I started a LJ because I liked using it for NaNoWriMo- a blog format kept me accountable to the calendar, made it easy to measure progress, and allowed for my fellow writers to suggest and give constructive feedback.  Do I write there anymore?  No.  Do I still have tons of ideas and essays on where it could go next?  Of course.  Do I post there?  No.  Why?  I feel greater obligation to keep my friends and family updated on what's going on in my life than I do to my work, my creation, the other writers I've never met who shame me with their productivity.  How to break out of it?  I don't know.  I love keeping in touch, I love keeping an account of my life to read years later.  But I can at least give you this:
