Holy shitballs where did all the posts go?

 If you are a regular reader of this blog then you might have spotted something a little different about it. Haven’t spotted it yet? Take a few moments and have another look. Got it yet? Really? Come on people!!! All the other blog posts have vanished. Well to be more precise I have deleted them. Why I hear you cry. Well read on and I will tell all.

During my time writing this blog I have had the chance to talk to lots of other bloggers and get their advice. For some their blogs are all about expressing themselves. For others they are money making opportunities. For the rest they are chances to try and grab their five minutes of internet fame. Like many bloggers money has never really been of interest to me which is odd considering I didn't have any to start with. I started this blog as a form of self expression. I had just turned thirty and felt a need to reach out to others in some sort of attempt to find out if my life echoed theirs in any way.

Somewhere along the line however I lost my way a little. Like most bloggers I keep an eye on my blogs stats and the number of readers I get and like most bloggers I fell into the trap of wanting more and more readers. My blog posts became less about me and my life and more about general articles which I felt would attract web traffic. I always started out willing to write about topics besides from my life which were of importance to me but in the end I have just ended up posting crap which I don’t really care about or has any relevance to my life or the theme of the blog.

Well my friends that is all about to change. I have stripped this blog back to basics and this time I am determined to keep things on track. This means you will see less general posts about mindless rubbish and more posts about my life and things that I actually care about. I have no doubt that this will see a drop in my reader numbers but for those who stick with me I hope this rethinking will see an increase in the quality and frequency of my writing. So to those of you that stay please bear with me will I get the blog back up to speed and to those that jump ship why not give it a month or two and pop back and see what you find.

Here is to a brave new world then.
