Hey
I put a shitpost up, based on my opinion of course, the other day - the post still took an hour, and actually sits at 109 comments (half are probably mine).
It is tough to lower your standards when you've spent months trying to do the best you can - the feeling being you've earned your status and rewards because of continually making an effort.
But yeah, it takes time, and sometimes I just have an idea that isn't going to produce a detailed piece of work with hours of background work, and I think as one-offs, that's cool. After all, there's a lotta shit out there!
Exactly, this is why I wrote this post, because top content creators think exactly like that, that its virtually impossible for our own standards to post lesser quality posts and that we+d be disappointing us and our readers if we post something "not worthy" of our blog. But yeah, sometimes we just need to give ourselves a very much deserved break.
Yeah it's tough, I think you are right though - those trying their arse off day in day out can afford a break from time to time. Whatever is produced will still beat the average i'm sure!
