Controversy Thursday: Cookie Dough

You may have noticed that as of late, I have not been particularly inspired to write; leaving you all to be entertained by each other's comments rather than my own wit. What is the controversy in this, you might ask? Well, I'm debating taking a leave of absence from blogging. I've considered it before, but my attention-whoring tendencies always prevented the actualization of my departure from the scene (trolling excluded).

My ultimate reason? Through my addiction to blogging, I have found my creative voice. As with any drug-like dependence, I no longer experience the same height of euphoria from posting a particularly well-written vignette that I used to when I was first flirting with extremely pubescent writing skills. The more I hone, the more I want. A narrative that's more substantial in content and length. A wider audience. Both of which I fear a blog [and its bromidic, high maintenance demands] will never fulfill.

It is this that I will leave you all to debate for me as I wallow momentarily in this unfamiliar state of verbal sobriety. I'm hoping this intermission is just that; a fleeting recess, rather than an end.

**P.S. Based on your input, I'm moving to once a week instead of quitting. I'm just not ready to say goodbye.
