Started around the same timeframe (early 2019), lost quite a bit of steam since then. The prospect of republishing and polishing old ideas via Substack sounds more interesting than being on the hunt for that ticking timer to get my monthly post out there. Thanks for the meta-post! Made me think!
A great discussion of blogging in the mid 2020's thanks for the encouragement. I realize all to well that I have let my blog sit too long and I know the joy I get from writing about these things too. Plus I have way too many games sitting on my shelves waiting to be reviewed and directed! Time to pick up the laptop and get clacking!
Something it's helpful to remind myself is that blog posts can (and even should) be low effort! It's all about getting thoughts down on the virtual paper, not about writing a masterpiece.
Yep, there is a channel for that. I'm not sure how much, if any, traffic I get from any given discord though other than perhaps the main "purple" (rainbow) OSR server, where I think the blogroll channel is well-read

My takeaway is that I should up my Discord game. Do you allow cross promotion on yours?
