@kaa could you go into more detail on how a blog differs from a private journal? I journal every day and return to past entries often, so what do I gain for myself alone by publishing some of them online?
@andrumatt there is an element about publishing online that writing in your own journal just doesnât translate over. But I imagine that itâs to do with your target audience - mainly yourself in the future. You want to write something that they might enjoy. In my journal I am working through things. Troubles, anxieties and difficulties. I wouldnât post any of that stuff online because itâs a brain cleansing exercises or a reflection exercise. The site is for âHey, this is cool. Or this happened. Or Iâve been spending time doing this and itâs changed my views on somethingâ e
@kaa Well-said, Khaled đ (I think these ideas have been floating around a lot lately, but itâs really nice to see them in a complete post.)
@smokey yup agreed, i just wanted something i could reference when i saw someone struggling and may have just needed a small bit of help getting it straight in their heads.
@kaa Thank you for this. I think that you clarified for me why I keep a blog...and I also explore that line at times where my blog ends and my journal begins.
@kaa Thank you for your insight. I recently realized that if I get in the habit of sharing my voice, I might actually improve my writing skills. It also provides a satisfaction of doing something productive.
@poetalegre awesome! glad to hear it. Remember to keep it micro, habit is much more likely to stick that way.
