I never intentionally ignore this journal. I am always getting ideas for things to write about here, but the challenge is finding the time and the inspiration to do it. I'm into this 24/7, but nothing is more frustrating than having a great idea in my mind that I just can't seem to express properly in written words. That is my biggest obstacle here, making sure that whatever I post makes sense. Sometimes the 2500 character limit is the culprit, though I have read that soon AOL will expand that to 25000. As prolific as I feel sometimes, I doubt that I will ever challenge that limit. Even I run of things to say sometimes.
Every single person I know or have read that is a success in the writing field says the same thing: you have to do it everyday, even if you don't have it at times. I try to do it, even if I have nothing to say. Obviously, some things don't make the cut. I'd rather leave the journal blank for a day or two if it means sparing anyone who stops by of some cheesy limericks. Such as this:
While Chester was cleaning the moat
He came upon his long lost pet goat
Perhaps something was amiss
With its last meal of Swiss
Which Chester had assumed would float
