Blogging
I used to blog all the time. In college I had a site that got pretty famous on my campus. And now that I'm writing novels, I don't blog at all.
I hate the term blog, though. I don't update my thoughts on general issues, I suppose.
Today I started thinking about it, why I don't do it anymore. Something about gaining some level of fame with my books kind of made me shut up. I don't want to offend people. I don't want to talk about subjects that I enjoy, because what if a reader disagrees or doesn't like them? I don't want to be controversial.
I really used to enjoy writing on a daily/weekly basis about things other than fiction. I was thinking that if Stephen King blogged, I probably wouldn't ever write again because I'd be too busy reading. He's a raging liberal, but I'd still read it, because I love how he says things. I don't know if any of my fans will feel the same, but I think I'm going to start doing this again.
