2018: A Year in Review

When I first started my Blog “The Road to Episode VII” back in 2012 one of my friends told me to slow down. He said I would run out of Star Wars content to talk about. Well… almost 200 posts later that has not proved true.

Though I have never struggled to think of Star Wars content, this Blog has focused on many projects over the years. In the Fall of 2013, I started to review Star Wars comics. In the summer of 2017 I focused on book reviews. So a year ago, when I wondered what I would do in 2018 I thought of something new… What would this blog look like if I posted every single week? Could it even be done. Could I continue to think of stuff to write about if I posted once a week for a whole year? Or would my friend turn out to be correct?

A year later I am confident that there is no end to my interest in blogging about Star Wars. In 2018, I published a blog every week plus some. Some of those posts were read by 1,000 people and some were read by no one but myself. But I don’t write because I always want people to read my posts, sometimes I write because I have no other choice, because I have all these thoughts inside of me that need to escape.

Going into 2019, my Blog is going to be a much smaller thing, with a much smaller audience. I’m not going to post once a week. I might post once or twice a month, but maybe not. With Episode IX a year off, I'm going to take a much-needed break from that Galaxy Far Far Away.
