Musings from Crown Alumni

Okay, enough. Steve, you know how to get yourself in trouble: They blog is not dead or over or anything of the sort. This is what is called a SLOW time. It’s normal, it’s expected, and it’s OKAY. So calm down. Here’s what happens: The regular writers on the blog either become too busy to post, or feel they have nothing of interest to post. When this happens, the sporadic posters feel self-conscious about posting without the mass of other postings to feel a part of and abstain from writing. And of course, those who have been reading without posting (and there are many of those) aren’t about to make their blogging debut at a time that would make him/her so vulnerable. So then what? Time passes and people think that the blog is dying and we shouldn’t post anymore. Kurbis declares it dead, Steve freaks out, and I say RELAX! I don’t think this thing will necessarily last 20 years, but it has served its purpose well over the last several months and will continue to do so as long as you let it. Steve, I’ll read your postings as long as you post, and I know many others who will as well, whether they respond or not. Continuing the community is important to me, and if that community dwindles down to a few or just two, it’s better than no communication at all. So instead of giving up, keep posting your thoughts, encourage others to post theirs, and enjoy.
