(cont’d.) In addition, this creates an environment of unreliability and insecurity for those who would like to create potential blogging “homes.” I’m thankful I’ve backed up my content elsewhere but from now on, any content like this will be parked on my own blog. The bottom line is this: If we’re not paying for a domain, we cannot rely upon it to be there in future and even then, it’s a smart practice to get in the habit of regularly backing up any content you want to preserve.

#WriteFreely

Ironically, what got me across the NaPoWriMo finish line was NOT sharing poetry here for the remainder of the month.🤣 In other words, writing poetry with the intent to share it was useful until it wasn't. A few weeks in, the poetry stopped flowing & I knew the solution was to write poetry just to write it, without any pressure whatsoever. I generally prefer to write like no one's going to read it, which just helps get the raw material onto the page. Revision comes later.
