Morgaine Swann over at The Goddess is having a double whammy not just blogger blues but also activist fatigue.
[via The-Goddess]:
If you've never heard of the Blogger Blues, let me explain. Sooner or later, all bloggers go through a phase where they feel as if no one is reading, that they aren't accomplishing anything, and just get bummed. I've gone through it pretty regularly in the last 6 months. True, I do this because I want to, it's my choice to spend my time this way. Sometimes, though, I take a break from reading other blogs because it makes me feel guilty that I write about things other than George W. And then there's the Outrage Overload.
I really suggest you drop by and read the whole thing, especially if you are left of feminism.
For Morgaine blues don't just come from overload but from a lack of leadership in the feminist spiritual community. Interesting because I'm hearing this more and more among progressive bloggers, men and women, in the "long tail". It just seems there's just not enough energy for us to keep on going.
Is this about expectations or is something bigger going on?
