And I’m still trying to get out of burnout.
Hello everyone and welcome to Blogmas 2021. This is the second of two months during the year that I (attempt) to write a blog post a day. For me, Blogmas will take place starting today, December 1st, and end on December 25th. From there, I’ll be taking a few days off, returning on New Years Eve or so to wrap up the dumpster fire that is 2021.
This month, I’m trying to watch 25 movies, one every day. They are all movies that I’ve never seen before, a mix of new releases and ones that have been out for awhile. In a few days, I’ll drop the whole list, including how I am choosing each film. I would have posted it before December, but again, burnout.
Another thing I’m doing is taking part in my Discord’s Advent Calendar. This is a collection of 25 prompts. I’m once again posting them on AO3, and I once again got a bit ahead, but nowhere near as ahead as I did during Whumptober.
As for what content I will be blogging about, it will be a combination of posts about writing, TV/Movie scene breakdowns, episode wrap ups, maybe a season review or two (depending on if I can blast through a series I want to rewatch), and also that Whumptober wrap up that I’ve been sitting on for nearly two weeks. Oh, and there will be a few personal posts as well, as things here have gotten a bit crazy. I’ll save a lot of that for those posts.
I will say that I’m not holding myself to being able to keep completely on time. After dealing with this burnout for the past month, I’m just trying to basically take it easy and relax. But I am going to attempt without completely stressing myself out.
So, I hope you will all stick around for Blogmas! I’m hopeful to see it go at least somewhat as well as Blogtober back in October.
(And if you’re curious as to how I came up with Blogmas, I didn’t. I decided last year to do Blogtober in place of Vlogtober, a video style of what I’m doing here. I found out later that someone had already coined the term, but I’m still using it. If I can find out who started it, I would be happy to give credit where credit is due.)
Until next time!
