In reply to Joe (arebelspy). Excellent. Nice use of the semicolon :)

I bought my wife that semicolon poster of the Oatmeal comic; she had it hanging in her classroom for years. I think she gave it to another English teacher to put up when we FIRE’d.

In reply to RocDoc.

You are absolutely right of course, the posts will be ready when they are ready and I love GCC, nice example. I appreciate the support. My goal is 1 quality post each week, which is not quite as easy as it sounds. There is this balance between making writing great, not getting burned out or frustrated, publishing with enough frequency to engage readers, pulling the trigger when the article is ‘good enough’, etc. Blogging tells you something about yourself…maybe I need to write an article about that 😉

In reply to PhysicianOnFIRE. I must be feeling extra goofy because your comment made me laugh way to much.

HappyPhilosopher,
Don’t feel under pressure to post. You won’t enjoy it as much if you push yourself and you may not come up with such great posts if you don’t give yourself some rest. When you have a post, we’ll be there. Go Curry Cracker hardly ever posts and is still great to read.

There’s nothing wrong with semicolons; they exist for a reason, you know. Most of my articles have at least one; I’ll occasionally use several in succession.

Cheers!
