Perhaps it will shore up the rest of my writing as well.

I didn't have a calendar for three years, and not knowing what I was going to write about next became frustrating and made me panic. I'm glad you liked the tips, Tessa! You have some great "categories" on your blog.

About the historical side of the blog, I'd be interested to hear about the renovation of such homes. How much does it cost? How many people end up using a modern style on the inside even if the home still looks "historic" on the outside? A little HGTV, maybe. You could also research Christmas tours in historic sections of cities across the nation and post when those happen. I hope those ideas help!Katy Kauffmanhttp://lighthousebiblestudies.com/katy-kauffman-blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2907737240492304428.post-16434244404477778922017-01-18T16:34:22.509-05:002017-01-18T16:34:22.509-05:00Yay!

I need to be better about planning ahead, though. I like your idea of only focusing on three months at a time. I'll have to try that. ;) Thanks!<br /><br />Tessa<br />www.christiswrite.blogspot.comTessa Emily Hallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08625256104634830104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2907737240492304428.post-33876086504744361742017-01-18T10:37:16.772-05:002017-01-18T10:37:16.772-05:00Great tips Katy!

Before then, I just posted at my whim. Now, I, like you, post weekly on Monday's. I try to mix it up between me writing the blog, with me sharing something someone else wrote, to having Guest Bloggers post. It's been really helpful to have a calendar marked with what type of post I plan to post each week and keep that pattern each month. From there, you list is super helpful to figure out the actual post topic. Thank you for sharing this!Wanda Luthmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03100617258180990222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2907737240492304428.post-72008818413488305132017-01-18T09:15:00.304-05:002017-01-18T09:15:00.304-05:00Great tips, Katy!

These all allow for a spontaneous break from the routine. Something I relish as a lover of fiction.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17632691961464703799noreply@blogger.com
