Weekly Geeks 2009-36

Saturday, September 19, 2009

This past week wrapped up Book Blogger Appreciation Week, in which I'm sure many of you participated. In two weeks will be Banned Books Week, in which I'm sure some of you also will participate. I'm also sure that many of you participated, and will participate, with at least a post per day, if not more, on your respective blogs.

Personally, after such weeks, I feel almost burnt out and think, "Why am I doing this? I'm not getting paid for this." Do you ever feel the same way after weeks like the ones mentioned above? If you do, what do you to counter it? How do you keep going? Do you take a break from posts after that, or do you just "soldier on"?

Or if you don't feel burnt out after such weeks, why not? Also why are you a book blogger? From what I've seen and experienced, it's certainly not the fame or the glory that you get. So what is it? Why? Why? Why?

Sign in with Mr. Linky by putting a link to your post and leave a comment if you're so inclined. Thanks for participating. Hope this doesn't contribute to your burnout. ;) I look forward to hearing what you have to say.

I'm not burned out. I'm inspired. It's the rest of my life (job applications, road races, etc.) that have me feeling stressed.

I'm sort of making my Sunday salon post double up here - but it is reflective of the impact of the last week on me. I think I'm still riding the wave. I'm a bit alarmed to find I posted 21 posts in the last week!

I have done it, I wrote the post because yes, I do get burnt out sometimes.
