Change is good as long as it’s not just change for change’s sake. Writing this blog has seen quite a lot of change over the decades and it’s time for another tweak, I think.
There have been lean times when I’ve posted nothing for several months, and over the last couple of years I’ve been posting almost daily. It’s not exhausting – I love writing – but it has taken chunks of time out of other activities. Something else I realise has been choked off a little by the daily habit is the opportunity to write at greater length on topics that might benefit from that.
There are some older topics I want to revisit and extend. An example of that is the series on walking the Cotswold Canals.
So I think, going forward, there will be days when I post nothing because I’m working on something a bit more expansive. Some topics might be best served by writing a short series on the same theme. We’ll see. I’m very much expecting to decide these things on the spur of the moment.
I shall try not to be absent for long periods, and I may post more items like the one you’re reading now – me thinking aloud about what to do next and how to do it. I hope that won’t be too boring!
Grace, peace and joy to all my readers,
Chris J
