I Want To Write Again

I don’t really know where to start but I’m just going to throw myself back out there. I feel like writing is so hard to do now and I hate that. I remember I used to watch a show and feel this excitement and not have anyone to talk to so I would just throw all my thoughts onto a post. It was so relaxing and just an outlet I haven’t really had before.

Why haven’t I been writing?

Normally, I’d blame it on being too busy to get anything done but I just haven’t felt very excited about anime. I haven’t watch anything new in a while and the only thing that’s really got me binging was One Piece. Almost feels weird to gush about a show that’s been around for so long. What can I say that others haven’t?

I also was starting to get a bit hard on myself about my writing. I still have so many drafts on my laptops for articles I’ve written but just ultimately decided it wasn’t good enough. I have so many friends that would slap me for saying that but I can’t help how I feel. Thankfully, been in therapy for most of 2021 and it’s helped me tremendously with framing. Instead of just assuming that it’s bad. I should instead ask “What can I do to make this a little better?”

I think how I will start getting back into writing is by going through the drafts I have and do just that. Analyze it and see what I can do to make it a little better. I have two posts that I would really love to get eyes on because I enjoyed those series so much. I just want to give myself the opportunity to talk about them and I think that was the main reason I started writing in the first place.

What do I want to do with BAYOG?

I always had this dream of what BAYOG can become and it’s definitely exceeded plenty of my expectations. This was just one of the many ideas to create something with our friends. Who would have thought that THIS is the one that stuck. I’m so happy it did and happy it helped me stay so connected to these people. To be honest,I feel pretty disconnected to them now. Not because of any reason other than, everyone’s busy, but the podcast was a great way for us to stay in contact and keep up with each other. So I’m really hoping we can keep pushing this ship forward and watch as it grows together. So hopefully we can get back together soon and more regularly.

I know this isn’t much of a post but like any muscle, you need to get your reps in to exercise it. I’m going to get back into writing and I plan on doing plenty of it. I hope I can get back to where I was and then surpass that this year. I don’t really believe in New Years Resolutions but I believe in myself. When I want to do something, I get it done. I hope I can also read all the other anibloggers’ post out there and learn from all of you. Thanks again for supporting us these last few years. I love the little community we are building over here.
