Losing My Muse, And Finding It

I haven’t written to my blog in a few months now. It’s not that I haven’t wanted to, or haven’t thought about it. I have. I simply became overwhelmed with the rest of life and didn’t make the effort to try to keep up this vital outlet for me.

I lost my muse.

I’ve come to understand that part of my mental holdups are due to the complexity that I tend to create around myself. The design of this blog had become too complex, with too many little hacks and workarounds that required fiddling and updating. I didn’t start because I knew I couldn’t finish in a timely manner.

Well, I’ve decided to simplify the design. Here’s the new design, now bereft of many of the visual distractions I had before.

I want to write, not fiddle with my blog design.

I will add more stuff - just a little bit more - and tweak a few things here and there, but this is it for now. I’m going to focus on what I really want to be doing, which is writing and taking pictures.

Thanks for reading.
