Ok, so you all know I take on too much. You also all know that I’m a glutton for punishment and that I’m doing the A-Z Challenge again this year *snigger* but hell, I’m not superwoman! Lol
Soooo, during the month of April I won’t be doing my Must Do posts or Faber (we’ve only one class during April anyway) or the IWSG post. I will need my Sundays during April to research the writers I’ll be highlighting during the week ๐
I’ve also decided that as from May I will only be blogging 3 days a week. Monday will be a catch up post, what I’ve been up to, where I am with the WIP and my plans for the week. The other 2 days will be Wednesday and Fridays. Wednesdays will be random stuff along the lines that I post now and Fridays I’ll post some fiction, as I really miss writing from prompts ๐
At the moment I’m feeling a bit…
I know you’ll all understand, and I will still be around on the other days, reading your posts and commenting (when I’m able to).
Im also considering having a break, possibly in June when I go on holiday ๐
I hope you’ll stick around?
Have you ever had or considered having a break from blogging?
Good for you with the new schedule. Yeah the A-Z I’m gonna try and read what I can. Today had company this evening but now can get back to screen writing homework. It’s the same but different from novel writing. Not easy. And I’ll try and e mail you some notes when I get a chance. You’ll find them interesting.

Hey Vikki,
I’ve been thinking about a new blog schedule as well. Do what you need to do just as long as you come back. I took a break at the end if last year and things were slow getting back to it, but it was so needed.
Good luck with A to Z. I can’t wait to see what you come up with.

I’ve never had a schedule either – and I just blog when I feel like it, trying to make it at least once a month. It’s supposed to be fun, after all – and I’d see it as a chore if I had a schedule! Have a break, Vikki – recharge! x

It seems here lately I’ve been taking breaks too often and I’m lucky if I’m posting once a week, but I’m trying to at least manage that. It’s just a matter of life and not having my own thoughts together. I have plenty of time.

Your writing must come first, so good for you! I’m still managing a post a day for 2013 – but I’m sure I will be burned out by the end. I’m still struggling to figure out how I am posting when I’m in England in July – eeek!
Take care and let your muse free on the page.

So understand! Even 3 posts a week gets difficult at times. I’m impressed people can decide oh, on this day I promise to write about this and on the next day posts are scheduled to be about that….now that’s discipline….my posts are all screaming and demanding time – they slug it out to see who gets keyboard time (and not always the best one wins?)
Make time to write!

Thanks honey, and your posts are so in depth, often requiring a lot of research!
Ha ha ha, I think I got into a rut with the Monday to do lists and the Tuesday writing class notes, so I kind of fell into a schedule. Perhaps you’re right and I should try the ad hoc approach….hmmmmm, thanks honey, will have a think about it ๐

I had a bit of a blogging break the past few weeks, but I’m hoping to get back at it. As for an intentional break, I doubt that will happen. There’s always something I feel compelled to share–as long as it’s no more than my once per week goal. ๐
