Mental Meanderings

An Update For Ger (And Everyone Else Too!)

Ok, well I've not been blogging, but what else is new. lol Apparently some people have been missing my Mental Meanderings. I can't imagine why, they're just a collection of pointless rambles and rarely offer anything interesting.

I have been blogging, just not here. Each Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday I update The Writer's Round-About with some new interesting thing. At least I think it's interesting and apparently a couple of my regular readers do too. But I haven't been blogging (or really reading blogs) on WDC lately.

I've noticed recently a sense of restlessness about my online presence. A homeless kind of floundering unable to fit into any sort of niche anywhere on the web but a yearning for that sense of community spirit I've known in the past. I guess it's because what I want from a community changes over time so while simply companionship worked before I'm now more interested in a uniting sense of working together that I haven't been able to find.

I suspect a part of that has to do with the fact that writers who are actively working at creating and expanding their career are off doing that, instead of hanging out in communities. There are other communities I've visited online for various things where I just feel odd. It's strange but I guess it's nothing new, this sense of not really belonging anywhere.

I don't really think I'll start blogging here regularly again. Unless of course people ask me too like Ger did today. I don't know what to say here any more. Random ramblings seem pretty pointless and nothing interesting happens in my life worth mentioning. I'm pretty much exactly where I am this year as I was this time last year and nothing looks like it's going to be changing any time soon.

So, with nothing to say there's no point to blog.
