Sometimes I get asked, how do I decide what I'm going to blog about? Oftentimes, I just don't, until I'm in the act of writing. I have what I call rippleshock, which is prolly pragmatically similar to what Malcolm Gladwell calls thin-slicing. However, I see my variety as more of a holistic fusion of intuition and instinct.
On occasion, I fall asleep on the keyboard, and as I wake, the first thing I think — that's exactly what I'll blog about.
In recent months, I've only had a trickle of Second Life inworld explorations I've been able to report on. That's largely because most of my work time in the present is spent on things "behind-the-scenes". And when I get off work, I indulge in storeyed other pursuits to broaden my horizons, and import back into SL. It makes sense, then, that I've been in the process of scheduling activities which do take place inworld, and give me an opportunity to quench my quests.
I like things to happen organically: I have this funny tendency, if I'm asked to write on a topic, I likely won't, unless I had it in mind already, and the request was a reminder.
So, a lack of something I used to manifest in plethoras… almost certainly isn't because I don't like it, and like the dip in an elliptically-curved rollercoaster, we'll find ourselves on the upswing in time.
There's rhyme, there's reason, but it isn't always what you or I'd expect.
And that keeps it refreshing!
