Burning Out
Both Dave Barry and Stephen Green (along with countless other bloggers, I'm sure) are suffering from some type of blogger burnout. OK, I haven't actually read Dave Barry regularly since I was 15 and reading him in the Sunday Washington Post Magazine, but I love VodkaPundit. He's all libertarian and socially liberal and just so cute.
This makes me wonder, though, how some other bloggers don't crumble under the weight of their blogs. I mean, how does Glenn Reynolds stay so Insta? And The Belmont Club? Wretchard writes about five really solid case study style essays a week. All insightful.
I've never even been able to keep a daily diary (I decided a long time ago, around 12, that if I'm writing for my own enjoyment, as opposed to that of my English teacher, there's no reason why I should force myself to write something every day.)
More power to them...but I was burnt out just from reading blogs after the election. And it is supposed to be fun, right?
