Probably one or two of you know I had a previous blog which is not deleted, but is archived. WordPress informed me today I started that blog twelve years ago.
Nothing much came of that blog, but I created a new one, which is the one you see now. Still though, twelve years? Maybe a suitable gift from WordPress would be new daily prompts!?
Happy birthday, original blog. Thanks for being here, everyone. Let’s have some cake! 


Huge congrats! 12 years is amazing!

I can relate. The years are going by fast when you’re an adult.

I also had a previous WordPress blog started in 2008, I think, which has been abandoned and neglected since around 2015.
While it was a labor of love at the time, it eventually became a chore. Now that I’m retired, I’ve got the time again for my current blog.

Mine wasn’t a chore, I just wasn’t sure what to do with it and life happened. Things change, and that’s OK. I’m glad you are able to have time for your current blog!

Maybe ask an AI like Gemini for your daily prompt, perhaps suggesting similar to what WordPress does? Just a thought.

Great idea! I’ve thought about a few options, and haven’t come up with one yet, but that’s a pretty good one.

New prompts! I second the motion.

They asked me to fill out a survey and I did. I told them about the prom situation, but so far… nothing. While we all have things we would like to write about that are not prompts, the prompts are what keep people engaged – writers and readers.
