the remedy

I picked the above up somewhere, and found it very true, so I pasted it.
I like the new design of this blog, but there're always other things to think about or that bug me to keep me from posting another article.
The first thing is that I am just wondering how come other bloggers post more than a good amount so regularly in almost everyday basis. I wish I could do that, too, but never would. Certain bloggers that I check such as Izzy still amaze me for their vigorous writings in a huge volume.
The second thing is the nature of the contencts of my writings would not let me want to drop a post so casually. I am your neighbor in Bklyn, NY, who is in the unlawful industry. Once I wrote, I usually do not feel like re-reading to check errors and/or revise, probably because I am already enough tired.
The third thing is usually I am wordy, too much to be brief and too unhappy about what I have just said. So no matter how I put those words, I am always frustrated linguisticly; this might be some pathology that I have got for a long time. Like Henry James, or Woolf.
The fourth is that this blog has such a limited set up that I don't have even a spelling checker, you idiot! When I happen to read back some of my old posts, my head starts hurting badly for they are very bad with tons of mechanical errors, and I still do not feel like correcting them for I have no idea where to start and how long it would really take. Or this is the very distinctive affect of crack smoking. You don't feel like doing anything. I wonder how others cope with this sort of situation. Once in a while, I try to read ultimate low quality writings ever published so that I can feel tolerant to myself and my writings; the one I curretly love to resort to for this purpose whenever I have this anxiety is this writer from the L magazine, a weekly give away magazine on every events in NYC. I am uncertain if I am remembering her name correctly, so let's say it is Rebecca Shuman just for here, whose writing so brain-smashing that I got so puzzled to encounter. I would say she is on in a million in terms of conforting struggling writers like me. Her article is always so bad to the extent that I call the worst that I ever found in any printed materials in last a couple of years. I still wonder why she still has the column, and why no editorial advice seems to be given to her bad writing, unless the magazine wants to offer a perversed comic relief for its bad quality to comfort the complicated struggles of writers like myself?
