We went to Centreparcs for the weekend. I did these before I went, intending to post them every day. But we were having such a good time that I couldn't be arsed getting my computer out. And I've no idea how to post on here from my phone any more...
Anyway.... better late than never...
I'm growing increasingly irritated by instagram. This is really quite sad cos I used to love it so much.
It used to be: Post some nice pictures, look at other people's nice pictures, have some lovely conversations, make some new friends, job done.
But it's not like that any more.
It's not just the fact that nobody actually sees my nice pictures any more (and they don't... my average post gets less than 1000 views now, despite having 22,000 followers) but my feed is just full of absolute shite. Every 3rd post is an ad. And even the posts that aren't ads seem to be screaming so loudly in order to be seen that they FEEL like ads. And I can no longer have the sound switched on when I scroll without wanting to punch someone.
It all just feels really desperate.
Anyway, I decided I'm gonna draw an alphabet this month, a little personal project. I'm gonna do one letter a day. But posting it on instagram really feels like a desperate attempt to win favour with the algorithm... so I'm toying with the idea of putting it on here instead. Dunno, haven't decided yet, might double-dip for a bit....
Here's my colour palette...
I do miss writing this little blog though.
Maybe I'll come back to it? Instagram does my head in most of the time so hold the line caller... I MIGHT re-discover this space!
