While I’m writing a series of posts about how I can make my music less self-serving, I need to ask how I can make this blog less self-serving.

I think people land here and immediately read it as something akin to a friend’s flyer for their own show. It’s an ad for their self-serving creative life. If you’re going to their show, it’s a favor. They’re not helping you, you’re helping them, no different than helping them move or giving them a ride.

I have tried to make this blog more valuable by incorporating other people’s music, but those posts get no more interest than posts for my own music.

I despair.
