Thanks, Bhagpuss! The decision to separate out my different content isn’t an absolute right or wrong, and I’m still not sure I’m making the correct choice.
I’ve been pondering the pros and cons of splitting my blog for a long time- at least four or five years. What triggered me to action was realizing I was second-guessing every motorcycle or gaming post I contemplated making to my main blog. That wasn’t a fully rational process, and more often than not I ended up just not writing a post at all.
I’m very good at coming up with excuses that prevent me from writing, and the ‘mixed’ blog content was one of those excuses. Blaugust taught me that removing ‘friction’ to the posting process makes me a more regular blogger. In the end, that is probably the main outcome I’m aiming for.
