An Important Blog Topic
I aim to create a multi-part blog about how women are poorly portrayed in media. This seems like a reasonable goal. Why not jump right in? Well… This is an important topic and a controversial topic. Does this mean the topic is too challenging to write about? I have given this topic much thought and know exactly how it should be written. Hmm. It seems like I am avoiding the real issue.
I took some time to think about the subject and identified two obstacles. First, I have been waiting until I have had enough writing skills to tackle this issue. The second reason is that I fear the adverse reaction. My goal for blog writing is to entertain, enlighten, and raise awareness about my books. Upsetting people goes contrary to those goals.
How should I solve this problem? The obvious answer is to set a date. Fine. I will make this a subject for my next blog. Done! Well… I already set a few “hard dates,” and they flew by. I even wrote an outline.
Should I disregard the topic? Should I apply more effort? Break it up into stages? Start a new outline? Hmm. I know how my mind works. One day, I will get upset (probably by watching another movie where women are mistreated) and start writing.
Perhaps writing this blog will shame me into starting this task. Blogging solved writing issues in the past. If you recall my blog that dealt with writer’s block:

Will this blog effort rouse up my inner drive? Perhaps. Or is it best to best to procrastinate even longer? It seems like a lazy way to end a blog.
