I was reminded recently by some recruiter on LinkedIn that I had a blog. Sure enough, essay ideas were staring at me balefully from the bottom of my to-do list. I was surprised, and happy, that my last post came as recently as nine months ago, had guessed it was closer to two years. That does make me feel better about how little has changed in the world since last I wrote, we shall see if I can retain my optimism that I'll eventually get to the exciting future I've hoped for.
On top of that, I have a friend who has recently started blogging, in a different style than I have been using, quick 200 word posts that he churns out multiple times a day. I hope to take that for inspiration.
