Okay, I think I figured it out. It’s easier to write when I’m talking to someone. When I blog, I often feel like I’m just talking to myself, and the most common situations which occur when I try to talk to myself are:
- I think faster than I can type (and often faster than I can think, if that makes any sense), and thus have a hard time creating a coherent written transcript of my thoughts, or
- I get distracted and can’t think of a way to express my thoughts.
That’s why I like message boards.
