Slowly Becoming More Active Again

 Hi guys!

As you might've noticed, this blog is very slowly picking up the posting-pace again. It's not back in full swing yet (where I posted about 5-10 times per month) but I am slowly returning to writing new posts for this blog. 

I still have a small backlog, too (of about 20 posts), so I hope to return to posting semi-regularly. However, I will not go back to making a Movies/Series Thoughts post about every single movie or series I watch. That's just not possible for me to keep up with anymore. I do the same now on my book review blog, where I only review certain books I read but not all of them. I used to review (nearly) every piece of media I consumed but that's (among other things) what led to my huge burnout last year, resulting in almost no posts in the past November-February time-frame. 

So in short: I'm slowly picking up the pace in posting again on this blog, I'll try to post about five reviews per month but it might be more or less depending on my gusto and how big my backlog is (don't want to exhaust it quite yet). 

I am also still posting on my book review blog should that interest you. The book review blog is slightly more active that this Movie Thoughts blog, but that's simply because I read more than I watch movies/series, and I also have a much bigger backlog of posts for said blog (about forty), so I wouldn't be running out of posts in my backlog as fast.

Finally: I wanted to mention that you can now follow this blog using the "follow" button on the right-hand side of the screen (below the "labels" section). That way you can be notified of new posts without having to follow the Twitter or Tumblr updates page.

So yes, I hope you enjoy future posts and if you stuck around: thank you!

Blog Hiatus

Hi guys, just a quick update on this blog's inactivity! 

In case you haven't realized it yet, this blog hasn't been updated in a while. This has various reasons, but bottom line is I am currently not able to watch as much stuff and especially not write a lot of Movie Thoughts/Series Thoughts. 

I do still watch stuff occasionally, but currently I am not writing new posts about them. I am instead focusing what little time and attention I have left to my book review sister blog, since this is where my passion lies primarily at the moment. I do still like watching movies/series and writing about them, but currently I just don't have the means to keep updating both blogs, so I have chosen to focus on the book one for now.

I have a few more posts in my backlog which I may post from time to time, but writing new posts is currently off the table unless I really am passionate about a piece of media I watched and happen to have the time and energy to post about it. I'm not saying posts on this blog are cancelled, just that I'm keeping it on hiatus for an undetermined amount of time. 

I will not be deleting the blog and all old posts will remain up, so you can still re-read them should you be interested, and as said in the previous paragraph I may still publish some of my backlog reviews so you at least have some new content during the hiatus. 

I hope I gave you enough information this way. I feel bad about not being able to keep up both blogs anymore when I managed to for a few years, but with some personal issues going on as well as me having a full-time job now it just led to a huge review-burnout and I simply am not able to do both right now. Books it is, then. 

This is goodbye for now! Remember that for the most active updates you can follow the updates Twitter and Tumblr. These two are the most active sources for post/blog updates. Should this blog become active again you will read it first there.

Also, if you want to keep up with my watching habits, remember that I have an IMDb and a Letterboxd.
