Why write a daily blog?

Why write a daily blog?

It’s not for readership. Or numbers, or fame, or profit. Or archival purposes, or to be historically correct, or for the joy of it.

It’s for the ritual.

The ritual won’t last forever, but for as long as it’s useful to me, I’ll maintain it.

The ritual of sitting down and doing it whether I feel like it or not.

The ritual of having ideas on command, something that is vastly easier for me 2,711 consecutive days in than it was on the first day.

I highly recommend giving it a try.
