Of course I agree with you, seeing things written out from a 3rd party perspective.
I argue frequently with people about how the #1 thing resturaunts can suffer from is lack of consistency. When you walk in that door, you want to know exactly what your $10 is going to get you, yet I'm violating the sin out of that.
Yet when it comes to my own tunnel-visioned quest for success, I missed the goddamn boat by a mile.
I think this could also be a bad case of ego... suffering from the assumption that I thought I was so interesting people would inherently want to listen to absolutely everything I had to say.
This post has been a lot like getting kicked in the ego-nuts, but it will be for the better.
I appreciate the truthful reply... now just to figure out if I want to even keep doing this or not.
I applaud you for taking it so well! Most people given advice like that tend to argue why they should do it their way, even though all evidence points to the contrary. Even if you decide to not keep going on this blog, you'll remember that you need to apply the consistency thing to yourself for everything you do from now on :)
Good luck!
(And, if it makes you feel better, I recently had the same epiphany about my own writing projects. I figured it out by assessing what the blogs I love did, and realizing I did almost none of those things.)
