The July Experiment

LOGO Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.

During the month of July I will try to blog more and less: I will try to blog more frequently, perhaps even posting several posts in a day, but I will limit my posts to five-hundred words or less — which is significantly less than the usual fare. (Yesterday’s post doesn’t count because I starting writing it in the wee hours of June.) If this “works” (whatever that means), I may halve the word count for August.

The reasons behind this experiment are many, and teasing them all out would be ironic and self-defeating. The biggest reason is that I want to improve and try some new things out. Maybe it’s time to change. I don’t want to let my “style” get in the way of all the other things that might happen.

I also fear that tl;dr (too long; didn’t read) is a very real problem that I’ve coyly ignored or openly given the finger to.

Also, after that round of posts with PEG last month, I feel like I owe you all a fresh and lighter menu.

I will only make exceptions for my interview series, of which I am still planning to publish at least one this month, with Calah Alexander.

I am also open to thinking for other ways to be a good steward of this fine piece of digital real estate. Feel free to make suggestions.

I don’t mention it much, because it would get stale and tired-out, but I am humbled by the very idea that I have such a thing as “readers” — sincere thanks to all of you.
