I planned to do my normal week in books, movies, and tv this morning but just wasn’t feeling it. I found no joy in the thought of slogging through it. I think that is a sign that it has come to an end.
I still want to do a regular post about what I’ve read, but I just don’t watch enough movies or new TV to feel like I have anything to write.
I’m still unclear on what direction to take.
Do I just do a weekly review of books and nothing else?
Do I do a general weekly wrap-up where I do the books but also random life stuff and current events?
I will ponder this week and see how I feel next week.
Any suggestions from the handful of people who read it would be welcome.
A less formally structured week in review might be more satisfying to write. You could plan to always recap your reading, then move on to any random topic that the events/nonevents of the week may inspire you to write about. But if you have nothing significant to report reading-wise, don’t stress about it.

Not stressing about it is the key

Well as you said in a previous post, this isn’t a means of making a profit. Maybe go the route of weekly.

I still enjoy the more frequent writing. I just stopped enjoying the structure of the Friday post

I like what Remedial Stitcher suggested. A weekly post summarizing your week, and fold into that any books you might have also started or finished that particular week.

If doing a scheduled, formal weekly round-up is too stressful (and believe me, I understand that feeling), than I’d just do an informal week in review where you talk about whatever. If you read a book, you can talk about the book. If you didn’t read a book, talk about whatever you want. The main thing is to make sure it’s something you’ll enjoy doing that won’t also feel like an obligation.

Thanks. Enjoyment is the key. When I started doing the weekly post it was fun. The way it is now isn’t. I just need to make it something I enjoy again.
