At first it's addicting and you have plenty of things to write about. Your advice, stories, problems, quotes, and so on. At first it's easy because maybe one person follows you. At first it's simple because you can write about whatever you feel like. As time goes on though, you may realize the tough job in blogging that you had so willingly volunteered yourself for.
Blogging may seem easy and fun but don't be fooled by the pretty personalized backgrounds and the interesting photos; It's tough. Post to post you have to decide what you will write based on your viewers. Even though it's YOUR blog you still want the satisfaction of people actually enjoying it. What will they think? How will they see it through their eyes? Does this actually make sense? A bunch of questions coming to your mind as you start to type a new post.
Another thing is the more people that follow you the less you can actually share your feelings on the blog. Like talking about certain things or your opinions on other topics. Some things you just can't write about because you don't want that person to know about it. It's A LOT of pressure no matter how you see it. One post could change someone's opinion of you and even though I say all the time about how you shouldn't care what people think, you don't want to be labeled.
Keeping up with it is a WHOLE other story. Life gets busy. And sometimes you just don't have the time to sit down and think of what you should blog about. Another thing is WHAT DO I WRITE ABOUT????? When it seems as though your life may be relatively uneventful it's hard to think of something actually worth posting to your viewers.
Blogging is a tough hobby. Many people call it quits because they just can't deal with it anymore. Not that I blame them, I actually understand because hey, I've deleted a couple of mine but if you keep focused and work it right you can successfully make it through blogging!
It might turn out to be a very good thing to have! :)
