as much as i love reading your blog, i just dont got the patience to wait 3 weeks for you to write something else. later days jude
Ain’t that a bitch ? I been writing shit for the past hour and a half, saved it to finish later, clicked on the comments link and I see this- Jude you don’t write enough.
I don’t write enough?
OK fine I don’t write enough.
I’m addressing it cuz I’m sure that Bowser210’s probably not the only person who feels this way.
My knee jerk reaction was fuck him and fuck anybody else that ain’t happy with my output, but then i stopped and thought about it his way. Compared to most blogs I don’t write enough and it must be frustrating as a blog reader to check on my shit 6 days in a row and have nothing new.
But in my defense I ain’t most blogs. Most blogs write about current events or compile pictures or have multiple people contributing. Me I don’t do much of that. Sure I’ll write about some current events but most of the shit I write, is about my own personal experiences, my own personal shit.
And sometimes it’s hard for me to write that personal shit, sometimes it’s hard for me to share, sometimes I’ll have an idea in my head and I’ll be like, don’t nobody wanna hear ‘bout that shit, and I’ll be picky about what I write. Because I don’t wanna be like Most Blogs.
I don’t wanna be like most blogs because most blogs suck.
Shit, I be self conscious telling people that I write a blog cuz I know the stigma that goes along with it. Everyone’s a fucking blogger now, I’ma god damned cliche. I’d rather claim AIDS than a fucking blog.
Not really, but still, my point is this…
Since I write true shit from the heart some shit is gonna come easier than other shit and some weeks I”ll pour out stories while others will be slow. Now I went back and counted all the shit I wrote since May 1st and it’s been 6 things, that’s roughly better than a 2 story a week average. Not bad. Not great, but not bad…
So here’s what I suggest, since I’m on some quality over quantity type shit and yall on some eat, eat, eat type shit, I suggest this - Check my blog once a week. Treat it like Soprano’s and not Like Entertainment Tonight. Pick a day, Monday, Tuesday, whatever. Pick a day and check it then. Catch up once a week with Jude, that way you ain’t annoyed and I ain’t bothered.
And if you’re new to the blog and feel this way, try going back and reading old posts. I got damn near 2 years worth of shit and I’m sure you haven’t read it all and because most of it isn’t topical, it’s still relevant….
Jude
