No need to apologise

I couldn't agree more with this post: A Book A Week: Blogging Without Obligation. Blogging is something I like to do, not that I have to do. There are only so many variants on the theme of "sorry I haven't had time to write a post", and they aren't that interesting to read (unless someone has not blogged recently because they won the Nobel prize, I wouldn't mind reading that!) Feeling under pressure to keep up a regular posting rate, I was guilty of this practice myself, probably for far too long, until Frank Wilson pointed out to me the simple truth that I blog because I like to, not because I have to. Less is more.
