Audience, and things to say

(This is entry 85 of 100DaysToOffload)

Whilst I haven't checked my analytics for a fair bit (I might do after I write this), I believe I don't really have an audience. In fairness, I don't exactly try for one.

That means that what I write here is essentially for myself. Of course, there might be people who read it, and I self-censor a little bit to avoid revealing too much, but largely I don't have to worry about an audience.

The thing with a blog is: I read other people with blogs, say Kev Quirk, or tiramisu, and think: oh, they've got interesting blogs, and something worth saying. For myself, I almost think of myself as not really having anything to say. Nothing worth reading, at least.

That doesn't stop me writing, of course. I'm still a little conflicted whether I want an audience. I don't know if I feel ready for it. I don't know if I have anything to say that could "please" an audience (not that I'm especially after pleasing an audience). Essentially, it's sort of an insecurity of mine. Then again, I sort of would like to have people to chat to, who I read their blogs and they mine. Sort of online-friends or something. Not sure, really.
