Maybe that's because I have my own career and I'm happy to keep those things very separate - always have been. Maybe that's because I'm not in the right location, I'm sure London has a lot more going on than out in the sticks. Maybe it's because I value my time too much to go along to the opening of an envelope. I don't have enough time to do all of the things i want to do anyway, so why throw a few more things in to the mix because I might get something to blog about. My blog is and always has been an outlet for me, an extension of the things I like, the things I do and to a lesser extent the things I feel. I am just not that fussed about the other stuff. charhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01424341312136077664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1598326900179239696.post-34318508712510236932014-03-26T20:49:47.608+00:002014-03-26T20:49:47.608+00:00Fab post!

To be honest, I have no beef with bloggers who write nothing but reviews - i'll only read a review if I'm interested but if that's what they want to do then fair enough. I have always liked the idea of free stuff and event invites but if I'm really honest with myself, I struggle to actually do the writing part of it when I AM offered because I want to write exactly what I want WHEN I want and the times I HAVE had reviews to write always seem to coincide with me thinking of a post I REALLY want to write! xxPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04425977546505490830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1598326900179239696.post-84668761244300849072014-03-26T15:48:07.923+00:002014-03-26T15:48:07.923+00:00I couldn't agree more - you've hit the nai...I couldn't agree more - you've hit the nail right on the head. In the past few months I've become really disillusioned with the blogging world and so have taken a break from my blog (and social media to some extent) in the past couple of weeks. I've taken a step back and been thinking about what I actually want.<br /><br />I'm sure I will be back to blogging soon - I've got things I want to write about, but at the moment I'm enjoying having a bit of time out and planning what I want to do next.<br /><br />xxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04158648872082551305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1598326900179239696.post-54040523128915365342014-03-26T13:13:41.927+00:002014-03-26T13:13:41.927+00:00Yes!

So well written and exactly why I started blogging too for my love of writing not freebies, I've only made it to 2 events this year, as often life is more important than a free drink or two... Exactly what I needed to read though so thanks Dawn! :) Ionahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11443814604191068441noreply@blogger.com
