My New Summer Writing Project - Big Brother 15 Power Rankings

As much as I enjoy writing,
it can be tough to find the time

I started this personal blog about a year ago with hopes that I'd have written more regularly by now, but hey, it's been a busy year.  

It's never too late to correct course though, and looking back I can see that what most motivated me to keep my keyboard crackling was last summer's Euro '12 soccer tourney. I think the whole "project" nature of the event, the set starting date and finish line, worked well to keep me on task and focused on carving out time each day to consider and arrange my thoughts. Even if those thoughts remained centered on one small, highly-specialized aspect of my life, it was time well spent.

Of course I tried the same thing with Bike Month this past May but quickly lost steam as the more general parts of the daily routine infringed on my free time, both for riding and for writing. But again, it's all about getting back on track here, and since I'm lucky enough to have a big chunk of extra free time coming up in the month of July, I want to do just that.

With all of the above in mind I have two new project ideas for this summer that I can hopefully execute with quality composition and the commitment to match.
