Fyse’s Floating Face

It’s an entry about blogging itself. A meta-post, if you will. It marks two years of Fyse’s Floating Face, and in terms of productivity it comes at something of a low point.

Since my 1st Blogday I have written 15,888 words in 51 posts, and have received 126 comments containing 4,343 words (about half of which were probably mine). The latter half of the year has seen a deliberate change in style, from day-to-day accounts of my activities to waffling rambles on particular topics. Anything from train travel to nubile Swedes, a family Christmas Dinner to momentary delusions of omnipotence. Entries weren’t particularly frequent but the future of the Floating Face looked good, with posts more fun to write and hopefully also to read.

Then my finals loomed on the horizon, and the frequency of updates dropped even further. Lately I’ve been managing barely one a month, and this is a dangerous state of affairs. It’s not all Cate Blanchett’s fault however, and I must shoulder a majority of the blame. The Floating Face is still important to me, and I fully intend to continue long into the future. My blogging mojo will return soon and I hugely appreciate those that are still visiting regularly. I can’t guarantee posts featuring Hollywood film stars, but fame isn’t everything, right? Exactly…
