Why does it seem so hard to do "mouth work"?

No, this blog is not dead, although I could understand why you could get that impression as the last post was several months back. I recently read about someone complaining to a blogger that they should quit the "mouth work" and get back to "real work". I seem to have the opposite problem -- the real work always gets ahead of the blog. Maybe it's an issue of focus.

I reread Seth Godin's guide on starting a blog for inspiration. Maybe what I need to talk about in this blog are two of my favorite things: wine and technology. Sometimes combined, sometimes each on a separate tangent. I think there's a lot I could say on those topics that others would find interesting. So onward with that approach -- and maybe the mouth work will become easier.
