the problem with blogging

"The problem with blogging is that it takes that idle thought, that seed of a story, and instead letting it harden and grow in the pink folds of your subconscious it makes you drop it out into 140 words and sends you on your way. You are giving the pearl no opportunity to develop. It is barely more than a speck of grit when you deposit it into the world. Blogging does not eat time, as so many seem to believe it does. What blogging eats is inspiration.

The problem with blogging is that it takes 100 great hooks that would one day form the part of something greater and turns them into 100 blog posts
with no point."

- Pierce Gleeson, from Is that blogging?
