Default Is Blogging good for the Soul?

I'm finding it is.

Twice now I have had a bad day and just felt downright miserable. I forced myself to sit down on both occasions and write a post on my blog.

Granted, it's a humour blog, so dreaming up wild stuff to post took my mind off my worries. Upon completion, I felt much better.

Has anyone else found just writing something lightens you mood?

I love blogging. It kind of does make my day when I see my site(s) updated and makes me feel even better when I get comments.

Me too! Makes me wonder why I waited so long before trying it.

My blog officially turned 1 month old last night. I'm pretty happy with the traffic I've been getting so far. It's not massive numbers, but for my first time out in the "blogosphere" I feel I've done pretty good. :-)

It gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling to know that people are reading my demented words while sipping their morning coffee... lol

You've only been blogging for a month? Wow. How often do you add content?

I used to want to do a few posts a day but now I just write one really good story every so often.

Usually each day, but sometimes I've skipped a day here and there if nothing good comes to mind.

Is it only one post per day?

Yes, generally once per day. Posted twice on one occasion, and have skipped a day here and there if nothing good came to mind.

Yes, it is good for the soul and it indeed can reveal the real you sometimes as you tend to reveal more real you on blogging than the real world. It help you organized and stay focussed on a job, here in this case blogging. It is one of my best way bust the stress.
