A writer I am not

Well, technically I suppose I am. I write, therefore I could be considered a writer. However, I'm not professional in the slightest. Looking back over the few posts I have already made, I can see that there are some errors, some issues, and some problems. One of which is length. I suppose I'm just expecting more from myself than I should. Then again, I've never really read a lot of blogs, so I don't know how long the entries are supposed to be.

I supposed to some that last statement is kind of sucktacular. Here I am writing a blog, and I don't read blogs. Kind of like a chef saying they never try anyone else's food. But remember, when I started this, I said it was more like a diary, and less like an instruction manual. I'm not blogging things like recipes, or how-tos here. I'm just talking. Which I suppose is one reason I doubt anyone will read this. Sure, someone may stumble across it somehow. I highly doubt they will make a point to read very far, or even come back.

So in short, I'm not really writing for anyone other than myself. And when you only write for yourself, you don't really have to follow strict writer guidelines. Length becomes less important. Quality over quantity, or something of that sort. But when you're your own worst critic, Then you have to kind of set your own standards. Because no one else will. And on that, I suppose my standards haven't been met. I expected more, I suppose. Not entirely sure why. Maybe I expected to have more to say. I mean, if I can't get out a decent length post on whatever pops into my head, was it really worth writing about? Or should I not write about everything that pops into my head? Maybe just the really long winded topics? But then, aren't I going for quantity, not quality if I do that?

I don't know. I suppose I'm just looking for something to complain about. After all, this is just like a diary. A running log of thoughts and ideas, questions, and what-have-yous. Why should it matter if the posts are short? Or if there's two or more posts on the same day? Or a few days missing? I suppose that's what makes it more realistic.
