Thank you to everyone who gave me feedback regarding the use of voice notes in my posts. I included one in this one 🙂
********
Sustenance of the mind palace
Kept afloat by uprooting unwelcome weeds
Dealing with adversity,
Treating any leeching decay before
It believes itself to have found a new home.
Face to face with
What I believe to have the strength
To overcome
I will not stop
Until I make it nothing
But a distant memory.

I was pacing as I recorded this 🙂 there’s some audio friction here and there but it adds to the authenticity, at least that’s how I rationalized it in my head 😀
I welcome this evolution of my blog, I hope you do too.
I’m listening! Had no idea you were doing this. Really cool. Question…how do you add a voice note?? Brilliant idea…and you’ve a great voice 🙂
Figured it would be nicer than seeing paragraphs of text 🙂 thanks.
To add a voice note you need to buy a domain because its a feature accessible to anyone who has a “Personal” payment plan.
Otherwise if you have a Youtube channel you can add a link here taking you back to your respective channel, I did that before I bought my own domain 🙂 hope that helps.
Got it!🙏🏾🙏🏾
I really like this. I wouldn’t mind daily posts and more voice notes. The voice notes especially because they’re authentic and you have a great voice. Keep this up.
I will do my best love ❤
I love this O.D and you sound good, guess this is for you😊 and I believe it will get better over time. Like you said when blogging starts turning into a job or something like that, it gets stressful so I try to avoid that path. And also blogging everyday isn’t necessary unless you have to or feel like. I blog almost everyday except weekends because I feel awkward when I don’t until then let’s see what happens and decide when to take time off blogging like i did before. Keep it up dear, cos it’s really awesome 💝😊
Thanks for the support Eddaz.
By the way, how do you motivate yourself to write that frequently? Any tips?
You are welcome O.D😊💖 I think it’s the fact that I feel uncomfortable when I miss a day of writing so I want to get past that feeling. Writing also keeps me focused generally, else I would feel lost, so the benefits outweighs anything else.
The voice has a nice touch ….. I was actually thinking of starting a podcast then embedding that into my blog because some words are better heard than read
and now I can read the rest of your posts in your voice than having to create a disembodied voice hahahaha

Haha thank you, I have been contemplating doing this for the longest time. You should do your podcast as soon as possible my friend, we are all curious to hear the author speak 🙂
Its my October goal. Actually I created the podcast page: anchor.fm/becomingthemuse just havent spoken anything yet….. September I was rather busy with trying to blog everyday

‘Fanned’ ramblings in Voice? Interesting👍
I do a post whenever I feel like a write… almost daily but no pressure on schedule. And, then a vacation is always a good thing!
I feel it is always best to write when you feel like it as you said. The few times i’ve written without actually wanting to, I have ended up delivering posts that have no real fire to them.
Thank you for taking the time to comment 🙂
Welcome! Its always a pleasure to do that for pen-pals:)
The addition is great! Always good to hear a voice behind the writing for sure.
Thanks Arbie, Im happy you think so 🙂
I like your voice, and it seems much more personal. I love the poetry here. Good luck with the new format.
Thank you my friend. I appreciate your kind words 🙂
