Embracing Simplicity In Blogging

What if a blog post is simply text? No fancy images. No links to additional articles… except maybe one or two that might provide the immediate context (and perhaps not). Can I truly write that way?

As I wrote about last week, one of the steps I will be trying this next while will be to do exactly that – write posts like this one that are just… simple. Perhaps even… (gasp!)…. brief!

In this case, I am using the Blogsy editor on my iPad. For tonight, I am not going to go out and find just the perfect image that illustrates simplicity. I will leave it as a block of text.

Can I eliminate all the trappings of what I consider to be “what should be done” in a blog post? Can I instead embrace the simplicity and just let my words flow?

Stay tuned… this will be an ongoing test… 🙂
