Changes


I've been feeling a little burned out and a little bored with the whole blogging scene lately.  I mentioned this a few weeks ago where I mentioned I would take a little break.  I was going to take all of July off but ended up posting up until I went on vacation last week.  I did take last week off and it was great.  It's also made me realize that I'm kind of missing a lot of stuff when I'm in my blog mindset.  

I have a lot going on in the coming months with shows at least once a month until the end of the year.  I really need to get things in gear with the shop and making products and pulling everything together.  I'm also booking more photo shoots which is nice and something I'd like to do more of.  

All of this is the say that I'm putting blogging on the back burner.  That's not to say I won't be blogging, I just won't be doing it 5 days a week. Trying to come up with content every day is stressful and in the end I almost always half-ass it. It's not fun any more and I don't think my content is very enjoyable either.  So.  I've taken down my sponsor purchase links and I'll be removing my sponsors at the end of the month (when they run out). 

You can still catch me on Twitter, Instagram and sometimes Facebook.  If you're local I'll be at the RAW Artists August show (you can purchase tickets here and choose Pamplemousse1983 as the artist!), at the Dallas Handmade Arts Market in September, at the Deep Ellum Outdoor Market in October, maybe at the Girlie Show (if I get in!) in OKC in November and maybe the Etsy Dallas Jingle Bash as well (again, if I get in).  

You could also book a portrait session, just visit me at Sweet Violet Photography and I'll be happy to talk to you!

Catch you on the flip side (I'm not cool at all).

  1. Your content is always enjoyable, Maryam, but I must say, I completely know where you're coming from. Posting 5 days a week is definitely stressful at times. I've also started to consider posting less but I'm almost scared to. How sad is that? You're extremely inspiring. Here's to change!
