What are your blogging goals for the new year?

Tell Me Something Tuesday

This week's Tell Me Something Tuesday is What are your blogging goals for the new year?

You think after all the years of blogging I've done, I would have some type of idea what I am going to post or maybe some sort of schedule or structure but no. I never make blogging goals. I prefer the lazy approach - just blog what I want and when I want. I might do another Draw Something month like last October where I draw every day and posted those drawings. I might also do the Blogging from A to Z challenge in April but I haven't make any decisions. But if I have to answer, I guess my blogging goals for this year is simply to post something once a month and that's that. (If you know of any challenges/memes or events I might participate as a blogger, let me know.)

What are your blogging goals for the new year?

  1. I think I am posting too many memes but I love them.

    1. Christine: I love memes too, they're the reason I haven't stopped blogging.

  2. I hope to continue Sunday Selections and participating/co-ordinating Words for Wednesday but other than that I have NO goals. Which suits me.

    1. Elephant's Child: Same here, though I have yet to post my Words for Wed on time. My goals to post once a month is not much of a goal since I do it anyway whether it's a goal or not.

      Thank you for coming by. Have a lovely day.

  3. I too have no goals - exept for hopefully participating in Poetry Monday and Words for Wednesday (where I will be providing the propmts for June), but I hope to go on blogging of happenings great and small in my corner of the world. One of my 'goals' would maybe be to read some new blogs and comment more there ;)

    1. Charlotte: I also like to read new blogs but I don't seem to find them as most people no longer have blogrolls and those new blogs I find are usually not being updated.

      Thank you for coming by. Have a lovely day.

  4. I don't think I have any blogging goals for 2022 other than to just keep blogging. I used to be more creative about it, but apparently not this year. :)

    1. Lark: Just keep blogging sounds good to me too. I also find I'm not as creative as I used to, I guess it's not a bad thing as long as we keep blogging.

      Thank you for coming by. Have a lovely day.

  5. I think keeping it loose is good sometimes. I have some (vague) plans for my blog this year but nothing too radically different. I hope you continue to share your writing if that interests you.

    1. Greg: I too have vague plans for my blog but doubtful they came to anything. And yes, I'll keep sharing my writing even if they aren't being read.

      Thank you for coming by. Have a lovely day.

  6. I've also traditionally kept things loose while blogging. This year I do want to strive to post more consistently (once a week, maybe ??) but I also know that sometimes life just happens, and I want to be flexible with myself and when I am inspired to write :)

    1. Claire: I like to be consistant too but we don't have to be as long as we're blogging, it doesn't matter as much.

      Thank you for coming by. Have a lovely day.

    1. WendyW: No need for any plans, really, just like life, just let things happen.

    1. Blodeuedd: Yep, posting once a month is a worhy goal.

  9. I'm sure that keeping it simple will motivate you to post more. Some of us don't work well under pressure ("work" shouldn't be a word one uses around blogging, but you know what I mean).

    Looking forward to your drawings, and maybe more short fiction? 🙂

    1. Roberta: You're right, work shouldn't be use with blogging. But you know, some people make a living off their blog but most of us are hobby blogging, right? I know I am. And yes, I'll probably share some drawings and short fictions as those are the two things I'll never stop doing.

      Thank you for coming by. Have a lovely day.

  10. This is exactly where I'm at with blogging. At this point, 13 years alter, I'm just happy to still be here and go at my own speed.

    I'm glad you found what works for you.

    1. Karen: Same here. I have been blogging just a little more than you but I'm happy to just blog whenever.

  11. My blogging goal is to just blog. 😄 (The A to Z challenge does sound fun...)

    1. Lectrice Vorace: That's exactly what I meant except you make it sound so much more elegant. The A to Z is always fun, well, still a bit of work but I like doing it even when I complain about it.

      Thank you for stopping by. Have a lovely day.
