You’ve probably heard of Startitis — the term for the state in which a person is constantly starting new projects, regardless of the number of unfinished objects awaiting their attention. A new idea comes to mind and wham! they start again, leaving the last great thing in the dust.
While this term is generally applied to crafting, I’ve discovered to my dismay that I have startitis when it comes to blogging. I have almost a dozen half-finished posts sitting around in draft form, all crying out for my attention. I’ve been quite ill this last month, admittedly, but the silence on this blog has been caused far more by the dreaded startitis. As if I needed another disease 😉
I’m going to do my best to *finish* posts now, so if all goes well there may be many in quick succession. If not, well, I think we know what to blame…. 🙂
Aha.. now I know what I have!
I have Stashitis! I don’t start much and not finish but I do collect and collect and never even get started!
I hear ya. I recently came across someone who was taking the craft a day challenge for September. I don’t know how anyone can do it. That’s like achieving super crafter sainthood or something.
Hey I found that challenge and I just might take it up 🙂 With ATCs though, they’re only ickle projects anyway. But if all of my stuff arrives from England (finally!) I may be too busy with unpacking. Plus the obligatory birthday celebrations, as I never skimp on that!! 🙂
Thanks for letting me know about it…even if it is extreme 😉 After the last month I think I can handle very small projects. Emphasis on VERY 🙂
