Can I vlog instead of blog?

I haven’t abandoned my blog, which I renamed to ‘Reportage’.

I realized that I wasn’t sharing stories, rather I was sharing small life updates and of course there’s a harsh realization that I have zero audience.

I tried editing some videos for Vimeo of surfing and bodysurfing over 10 years ago but I had no clue what I was doing. I still don’t! But I’m trying it again just to see if it will catch on. I find that it’s easier to come back and watch a video instead of read something I wrote. Except, it means I have to listen to my voice which might actually be worse than reading my blogs. We’ll see.

If I can figure out a convenient workflow then I plan to catch up on the last 2 years of life events through video instead of written posts.
