Yikes!
A whole month without blogging!
And I've got at least two posts that are nearing completion, and three more ideas that are currently just fledgling posts - started long ago, but ignored ever since.
This "Save As Draft" feature on Blogger is actually a deterrent to blogging. Feeds the tendency towards procrastination. Allows the blogger to loll his time away writing partial blogs never completing any, always coming up with new but incomplete ideas, leading to the slow death of the blog, the child that needs to be constantly fed slowly being deprived of nutrition, wasting away quietly, shrivelling up until it is almost a skeleton, drying up to the bones, crumbling to dust...
From ashes to ashes...
Well. Here's to the New Year and a resolution to never using the "Save As Draft" feature ever. Ever. (Except in case of emergency, of course)
The above blog was written in 12 minutes. (Yes, it took that long. One more would have been unlucky)
