Sitting at my computer at 3:00 AM, eyes bleary, tired as hell, I am confronted with the blank blog page, a twinge of nausea. A question suddenly hits me in the forehead. Why do we bloggers do it?
You know it immediately if you are included in the group I refer to. You know it instantly because you are there with me each morning, collectively banging our heads from remote blogging stations.
Of course, our reasons vary, but a common thread binds us. We bloggers share similarities that unite us in solidarity, though the union is fragmented and oftentimes unrealized.
You think about why you do it everyday, even if only subconsciously, or you wouldn't bother. Writing daily is no easy task. In fact, some days it's nearly impossible, when you stumble across obstacles and blocks. Those are the tough mornings when ideas are thick like tar and creativity is stuck in a frozen jar.
