Early in my blogging experience I quickly realized that blog fodder is not all that easy to find. Take my cooking blog for example. I do a lot of cooking from scratch but once you blog about a meal or recipe unless you make some type of change there is nothing more to blog about. I also quickly found out with my gardening blog that when the gardens were under a foot of snow there wasn't much to blog about. The oh no feeling differs from bloggers block in that you have every intention of blogging and want to blog but there is nothing to blog about. Back then the oh no feeling really got to me especially when I realized that some months I was lucky to come up with something to blog about a few times a month which happened more than once with my gardening blog. Rather than scrambling to try to find something to blog about I would just let which ever blog was without anything to blog about in temporary spurts of limbo.
Now I have 6 blogs with a goal of one post on each per day although that is not a rigid, must do just a goal more to see how it affects my blogs. So I'm sitting here having an oh no moment because in my ultimate wisdom I have no post for my cooking blog for tomorrow. I have several pre-scheduled posts so if push comes to shove I can move one of those up to tomorrow which is a nice benefit of scheduling but I would prefer not if I don't have to. The alternative is to get into the kitchen and make something I haven't blogged about before which is likely what I will do. In this case the problem will be easily solved but for some blog niches that oh no feeling can really hit home! To prevent that oh no feeling I find having a back-up of 3 to 4 posts that can be scheduled to run on the day when you have nothing to blog about.
