To answer your question, yes, I did convert to an SSG a couple months ago. Huge pain in the butt and I wish I would have known about them when I started my website. Still, I do really enjoy how much easier it is to make an update.

I can imagine! But the workflow is nicer and more nimble, no? I built my professional website after this one and used Hugo from the outset and love it. My one hangup with this one is the migrating of my posts. I COULD simply paste them in a folder and leave as is, but I'm so tooky that I would inevitably end up attempting to convert 150+ html into md and I think I need some major hyping up to even tackle it >.<

Yes, I definitely don't miss having to update all the navigation myself. No way I'd be converting all my 200+ existing posts to MD though; they can stay HTML for all I care. I am usually picky about these things but not here.

imagine not posting on your site for over a month, lol, what kind of shit writer you'd have to be to do something like that

Yeah, after a month I think you'd have to give up writing altogether and take up stamp collecting or something

A month isn't really that long to go without producing polished art of some kind I'd say. In any case I just wanted to say I admire your commitment to creating a polished experience, and ability to write about the most mundane of things in an entertaining way. Which makes me wonder, do you do some other kind of writing outside of this website?

"Art" might be overselling what I do a bit, but I appreciate the compliments. And I do! But not nearly as fun though. My day job is writing instructional documentation for software. Still a paid gig!

I am genuinely impressed by how often you update your site and how much content is on it. My site is just a trickle by comparison. I do know the feeling of "I should be writing something" all the time, but I also know that creativity is like the tide and comes and goes on its own terms.

Also, once in a state of extreme stress I almost took up stamp collecting as a hobby. I don't know how to say this in a way that doesn't offend actual stamp collectors, but if you find yourself starting a stamp collection that may be a cry for help.

I actually *did* have a stamp collection, and now that I've remembered that fact I realize it would be something good to write about. So I'm going to leave you in suspense, which is the first time a stamp collection has ever had that effect on anybody.

It's nice to have that kind of rotation where one can tinker with the code, isn't it? I get writing droughts where I have nothing to say but then feel connected to my little site by adding little things here and there. It looks like you use an SSG? I regret not doing that, meh >.<

your game reports are really engaging !! this website is awesome,, if i wasnt absolute ass at writing id definitely take inspiration and do something similar but unfortunately i simply cannot write

I think you should do it anyway! The way I see it, nobody gets "good" at writing until they start doing it about things they genuinely care about. If you're feeling inspired, why not roll with it?
