Are we being bogged down with Blogs?
Do you realise that if every person that writes a book also writes a blog by the year end we will be buried under a mountain of words!
Perhaps that's what the Mayan's foretold, the world buried under a mound of trivia and useless information, all of it clogging up the airways.
Where do all these blogs end up? Are they stored for years in Cyber Space or are they recycled somewhere?
I have just the one blog, I could, should I so desire, add a blog to my website, but I have to ask is it really necessary? Will my writing yet another blog help me sell more books? Would life as we know it come to an end if we all stopped blogging?
I am a widow and mother of three, and other than my writing what do I know that will interest people? Will the fact that I know how to make peach chutney matter to anyone other than my family? Will anyone give two hoots if I can't get my Elderberry, bramble and apple jelly to set? Or whoop with delight as I turn out yet another Loads a Money cake?
The answer my friends may as well be blowing in the wind along with all the other irrelevant information one picks up during one's life.
I for one love life, and the nearer we get to the 21st December according to the Mayan's the nearer we are to extinction. How can we be sure they haven't miscalculated, because let's face it, they are already extinct and have been for years!
I for one, could have gone happily through my life without their phrophecy. Now with each day that passes I wonder, will my children live to see another birthday? Will I live long enough to marry for the fourth time, my man has it set in his mind that we marry on the 19th August 2014, but will we still be around by then?
The fact that I am considering marrying for the fourth time will probably have some of you wondering if I need certifying! My eldest daughter tells everyone it's because I like wedding cake and honeymoons!
Not true, I hate wedding cake and honeymoons are overated and expensive. I would rather spend my money on a swimming pool or a conservatory for the house, they are useful items that will be enjoyed again, and again.
After the honeymoon's over all you have left are the photographs, if of course you don't have your camera stolen that is!
Sorry if I sound a little cynical, and sorry for those of you that were expecting me to spout on about something to do with writing!
Are you ready for this next piece of information I wonder? Well tough because I'm going to tell you anyway to the day there are precisely 121 days left until the 21st December, and not only that I just found out that we now have a precise time too!
11.11 - 21.12.12 is the Age of Aquarius!
Now according to the song, and I quote 'When the moon is in the seventh house and Jupiter aligns with Mars, then peace will rule the planet and love will steer the stars!' And so on and so forth!
Doesn't sound much like a prophecy of doom to me!
What sayest thou? Please feel free to comment!
