Windows Live Writer

I don’t blog. It’s not because I don’t have time. It’s not that I don’t like the idea of blogging or having a blog. I have tried several times over the past couple years to start and maintain a blog; however, I only manage to get a few posts up before I lose interest (see SurplusCode).

In analyzing my failed attempts to be a blogger, I believe I have found two main reasons why I don’t succeed at blogging. One, I hate to write. Well, to be more exact, I have the fear of not writing well. I have this strange inner feeling that someone is always critiquing me and that makes me want to write perfect blog posts. And whenever you have perfection as the ultimate, each keystroke comes further and further apart. In fact, I probably use the backspace and delete keys more often than any other key. Sad, but true.
