I started EG a year ago as of the first of February. It was then that I decided that EG would serve as a journal for me, an outlet, and perhaps a guideline or a source of... something for everyone else.
I've realized that, in the past year, despite my neglects to EG, I have made some "good" posts -- stuff that people supposedly care about. I've also made some "me" posts -- what I've been doing, how I feel, and just a log of my characters and their progression.
And I've made a whole crap ton of posts apologizing.
For what?
For not actually posting.
Seems silly, really, thinking upon it. It is EG, my pet baby, and I should coddle it when I wish, or put it aside when I just need do advance in the game.
But yet, I still do it.
Apologize, write a bit, and stop for a long while. Rinse and repeat.
I think, somewhere in the year, I realized that, yes, while I originally started EG as a "me" thing, it's become more than that -- or, at least, it would if I actually did something with EG. Other people read this, and, therefore, as a writer, I ought to cater to other people.
But I'm selfish. I'm at a point where there is still a lot for me to do in the game, and the blog has started to feel like a burden than a fun past-time. A negative thought, for sure, but that is where the end of the blogging year brings me.
EG will be my precious still, and I will still write in it, but I do need to recall that I made it for fun, not so it can be another task, another thing to put off for a while.
Happy Blogversary, EG!
... Now what shall I do...?
Find a muse again, somehow.
Here, muse-y muse-y!

many congrats!
I accept any and all your apologies, made now, as of late, and in the future.
Just have fun in the game, you'll find something that excites you so much you'll want to write about it. And when you do, I'll drop in and read about it. Have fun!
