As some of you may have realised by now; starting this month I no longer write for SmartDatingUK. Since I started working full time writing at least five posts a day for the Sellr blog in Bath, by the time I’ve gotten home (and tended to this and my webcomic) I just don’t have it in me to be writing SmartDatingUK posts too. Given infinite time, I would definitely continue, but then, with infinite time, there are an awful lot of things I’d like to work on…
I’m quite sad to see it go. What’s funny is that when I started writing for SmartDatingUK I was a little unsure: I never really thought of romance and relationships as an area I was particularly knowledgeable about and I wasn’t sure that I’d be able to produce regular content on the subject. Of course, I was able to and I enjoyed doing it very much! I even wrote a post on here not too long ago about how I really liked doing it and how I had a lot of creative fun with it. In the end, most importantly, I think I learned from the experience. Not only did I learn about the world of romance and online dating, but about writing too. It really isn’t too difficult to produce a nigh unlimited amount of content on any subject at all and that realisation was a big part of what got me my current job! So it has certainly been a very beneficial experience.
If you’re sad because you liked the SmartDatingUK posts, don’t worry! They are still going to be written. My good friend Chloe Ward will be handling things from now on and, trust me, things are in very safe hands. Click on her name to go through to her website and take a look at some of her work; she’s very good. I only hope that her work for SmartDatingUK will prove to be as beneficial to her as it has been for me.
