31 Days to Build a Better Blog

I discovered a link to the 31 Days to Build a Better Blog Challenge via Zoot and I am going to attempt to incorporate some of those challenges here. I'm not going to officially sign up for the Challenge, because a scan of prior Better Blog Challenges made it seem like I don't have exactly the same goals for my blog as many others (e.g., gazillions of followers; source of income, fame; etc.). But I am going to follow along and see what tips and tricks I can incorporate into my blogging. I just feel like this website has gone waaaaay downhill lately, both in frequency of posts and quality of content. The main reason behind that is because Life is Good and I started this as a place to rant and ramble my way through the trying times of law school and the bar exam. Now that I'm settled into a good job, adjusted to this city, and established a place for myself here, a lot of the stuff I used to write about is just gone. I am most certainly not complaining that Life is Good, but somehow it was just easier to complain and whine and blah, blah, blah, and call it a day. I really would love to have my blog have more of the tone of Ashley's, who I discovered a few months ago and just absolutely adore. (Seriously, her blog is just such an adorably happy place, I dare you not to read her on any given day and smile. Plus, her Etsy stuff is so cute and fun!)

This blog has been pretty directionless for a while and hopefully this Challenge can provide the jumpstart I need to figure out what I really want this website to be about. I've been writing here for... get this... nearly SIX years. That's way too long to be wandering around the internet without finding any sense of what I really want to do with this space.
