Have you run out of blogging steam?

It's been a couple of days since I posted an article, mainly because I've just been too busy working on other things. Yeah, most bloggers have a life outside of cyberspace; however there are times when you just can't think of anything to write about. It's called "writer's block" and it affects bloggers, too. I've noticed a couple of my friends (who shall remain nameless) have nearly given up on keeping their blog content fresh; and then they complain that no one leaves comments anymore. I'm almost at the point of removing some of them from my Google Reader, just to trim the number of subscriptions and keep me from wondering "what's wrong with so-and-so?"

Being a WordPress fan, I was surfing the internet this evening and found Lorelle on WordPress, a lady who evidently is a huge fan of the free WordPress.com blogging platform. By the way, I would happily recommend WordPress to anyone who is considering their first-time blog or reassessing their reasons for trying to blog on MySpace or some other ridiculous substitute for a proper blog. Please pardon the digression and check out Lorelle's excellent article on "Blogging Tips :: Hundreds of Resources for Finding Content for Your Blog." She has posted a gold mine of places to get your creative juices flowing again, even for those who write primarily for a Christian audience.

I know you're not Tim Challies, who must be looking for a place in the Guinness Books of Records for the longest consecutive blogging streak known to mankind, but you really need to write once a week or twice a week would be better. Be sure and tag your articles for the webcrawlers, so that if people are looking for the freshest article on "Two-Seed-in-the-Spirit Predestinarianism" (some of you seminary guys are going, "Yeah, baby, where can I find that one?") they can find your blood, sweat, and tears online.

Let's go blogging!
