As I get ready to wrap up month 4 of this newly focused blog, one thing becomes clear to me: I simply do not have it in me to maintain this at the level I had hoped I would. At least not right now at this point in my life.

I believe I have some insights that can contribute to others’ lives, but not necessarily once a week or more. Not often enough to devote a whole blog to those insights.

Niche?

I started (re-started?) this blog because I felt my old site was too scattered… blogging, poetry, 3d art… all mostly unrelated to one another. So I thought I would separate them. Plus, I wanted people to read what I had to say! And all the blogging wisdom out there says you have to focus to draw readers.

Well, the truth is, I’m not a “niche” kind of person. While I have the ability to focus on one thing at a time, anyone who knows me would NOT describe me as a focused person.

I have been blogging out of character.

Back to the drawing board

I will re-integrate my poetry and 3d images. I will aim to maintain what I think is higher quality in my posts, but they won’t all be about “the journey”. Some might be about 3d stuff or a gadget I like, or a video game.

I want to thank everyone who has encourage me the past few months. I have had far more readers and subscribers than any previous version of this blog. Thank you for taking the time. Thank you for your comments.

Please, stick around. I have more to say… about my faith and about things that have nothing to do with faith.

“I have more to say… about my faith and about things that have nothing to do with faith.” i liked that, because i seem to be that kind of blogger too.

Thanks Tim!
I’m finding right now that I’m a little over committed and this blog will probably suffer for a short time. I hope to be back up an running soon though!

Will you bring back your Moonbase Commander wallpapers? Great game… I think it deserves a wee ressurection.

Hi Jay,

I totally forgot about those! That was indeed a great game!

Unfortunately, I lost those wallpapers in a hard drive crash a couple years ago :(
