Reflect and rewind: Lessons learned from this blog

So I have left my blog for sometime in order to rethink and analyse what have been done, achieved and what mistakes I've made during this journey so far.

First and obvious success is that this blog allowed me to show other people my Elysian Drop troops codex. The biggest difficulty at the moment is get a feedback on it. I consider a full scale column dedicated to brave Drop troopers of the Imperium. It might be an interesting project but it might take me away from other priorities.

Second odd achievement is unexpected popularity if femme fatales. It started simply as a joke and mean to relax after writing a "profound" article or two, but visitations show that Cortana and Sarah Kerrigan are more popular than half a page of text mumbled out by your truly. Perhaps this shows that my blog does not have a certain audience in mind, plan, product if you like. Yes. This blog is truly is an experiment and attempt to find out how it works. Setting a goal, working out search engine optimisation and spreading my "incredible" creations is not currently a priority or a plan for world dominance. Perhaps it should?

Third biggest realisation is that blogging is simpler than it looks. Blogging in order to get into the top 10 - is not. Its business wich demands a lot of effort, time, skill and investment. After all, you sell to people meaning of life, answer to their needs and generally take their lifetime by creating something out of words, cultural and psychological tricks.

Well whats next?

Rethinking of what this blog is going to be.
Learning on how to make this blog useful in one or another way.
Making it work.

In the meantime I will post some more girls from the games :)
