One Year of Blogging

31 Oct, 2025

Posting this late because of course.

I've been blogging consistently on this platform for a year now. My first post here was on October 14th, 2024. I know it's not an impressive number for people looking from the outside, but for me, a chronic dropout of All Things, it's an absolute milestone of an achievement. That and the maintenance of my website, which was how I started on the indie web officially I guess.

Throughout this year, I've posted 61 times. Out of these, 42 blog posts were published in the main tag (aka "chapters"), which average 3.5 posts per month. My initial goal was 3 posts/month, and then in January I increased the goal to 4. I guess I managed to be right in the middle. The remaining 19 are split between Author's Notes (#status, 11 in total) and Illustrations (#photos, 8 posts).

I think it's the first year in many that I actually wrote consistently and tried to put thought into (metaphorical) paper. I also have a Commonplace Book and a bunch of little notebooks with a few scattered thoughts, but I don't keep track of them. Those little guys are free of my statistics. lol

This commitment is at the same time surprising and familiar. It's the "I should've known" feeling after years of feeling anxiety about writing, expressing myself online, once a space where I thrived.

So yeah. One year of The Folkmoss Logs. May one more year of logs come.
