hey TL. My blogging quality is pretty shit, and when I start writing an epic quality blog, I start doubting it and the quality of it. I look over it for issues and I see to many to finish, especially for something that might not even be read by anyone.
Anyway to try and remedy this? I've found posting drunk helps, but thats a pretty shitty way to try and fix this problem.

Three-point-five liner blogs generally aren't considered to be the most effective way of improving your blog posting.

(filler line) Still, it's better than flamewheel's 1 line spam posts

Well this isn't a good start...

But in all seriousness, when you mean "epic quality", do you mean "one that pushes the intellectual bounds and sophistication of the token TLer", or "one that will make people facepalm so hard that they'll find it hilarious and post 5/5 just out of pity"? Both are considered "epic" in their own right, and posting drunk will often lead to the latter occurring.

I think that having a sense of humor, a strong sense of direction with where you want to go with your blog, good spelling, grammar, and formatting skills, and some nice pictures are a good start if you wish for your epic blog to fall into the first category Good luck!

If you find too many flaws in what you are about to post, and don't want to spend the time to fix the flaws, then it is probably the right choice to not post it. No problem that needs to be fixed, you just took the right decision in not posting. Many could learn from you.

I find myself curious of what you'd consider bad if you thought this was good enough to post.
Legalize drugs and murder.

I am as well my own worst critic.

I once used a Oujia board with 4-5 friends in my band at the time, and we asked for our weaknesses.

One guy it said "Weed"
One guy it said "Girls"
and mine was "U"

I was tired and angry. Most of my blogs are like this.

I guess being consistently bad is better than trying something risky, right?

Set a reasonable time limit for your writing. Half an hour per page maybe if you hesitate a lot. I assume you can finish it within the time limit no problem, only you aren't satisfied with the result. Try to improve it till the time is up and when it's over, post it.

edit: I also am very critical of myself, to the point where it hurts me. I feel let down when I make a mistake or do not live up to my own high expectations. These otherwise small mistakes annoy me so much, that I stop doing whatever I did until that. Recently I found that setting a deadline can help.
