Between my schoolwork, student government, and sorority life, I’d be lying if I said it hasn’t gotten at least a little more difficult to balance everything than it was over the summer. The fact that I’ve had to shift my focus from my blog to my academics definitely does bum me out because I absolutely love love love blogging, but obviously my schoolwork has to come first. As a result you’ve probably noticed that I’ve reduced my posting frequency by a lot and I want to try and get a better feel for how I should approach the blog for the rest of the school year.
My posting lately has been pretty sporadic partly due to the fact that I haven’t made any kind of blogging schedule or plan and partly because I haven’t really been budgeting my time in the most efficient way. I thought I would be able to make it all work by “just doing it,” but clearly that hasn’t been working out very well.
Going forward, I plan on reducing my posting to three days per week (Monday, Wednesday, Friday) with the occasional super hectic weeks where it may be closer to one or two. Since my posting schedule is going to be reduced though, I want to make sure I am really focusing on producing the content that you guys want. I am absolutely so grateful to have readers who are loyal and engaged and I truly do not know where I would be if it weren’t for all of you helping to make my dreams come true. To ensure my posts are more fine-tuned to all of your interest, I’ve made a short survey (shouldn’t take more than three minutes) for you to complete! I know not all of you will be able to fill it out, but you have no idea how much I would appreciate your feedback. It’s thanks to all of you that I get to do what I love and I want to make sure you keep coming back for more.
As a little extra incentive, I will be giving away a $20 Amazon gift card to a random reader who fills out the survey! I’m so excited to read all of your input!
