I’ve Won - But I’ve Lost

On Monday I won a contest. Back in January, blog consultant Tris Hussey and I challenged each other to post twice each weekday, and once on the weekend. The person who failed first would blog for the other for one week. On Monday, Tris hit the Publish button six minutes after midnight, and I won our little wager.

As it turns out, though, I’ve actually lost. The competition kept me blogging on some tough and busy days, and the first thing I did when Tris declared himself the loser was to stop blogging for a day and a half. It truly is a bittersweet win!

On the other hand, I’m going to enjoy those extra posts from a truly inspired blogger next week.

  3. Well, I’m addicted so I can’t stop! grin

    In all seriousness I do feel a strong compulsion to blog and write.  I might not be posting two articles a day to my site, though!

    Oddly enough I seemed to do a week’s worth on Saturday and Sunday.  Funny that.
