I should be working of the Steampunk'd reviews, but I'm having some issues finding new episodes. Also, is is not that much about steampunk as it is about personal drama. The reason why I watch it regardless is because of the discussions that could be had about it. Speaking of which...
I am kind of indubio about this blog. I dealt with a lot of subjects on this blog (this is number 160) these last three years. I started out writing weekly, then biweekly and now the engine seems to be running out. Even though I still love to philosophy about retro-futurism, I am running out of idea's.
I also have a lack of time. I have a job, am still working on my house and attempting to have something resembling a social life.
Then there is RAGTAG. This group debuted on Elfia, one of the largest fantasy related festivals in Europe. We had a great weekend there and entertained dozens of fanatical kids on our stormcourse were they could do battle with brainwashed soldiers and evil robots.
I am still dazzled by the fact how popular RAGTAG has become, both by the public as people that want to participate.

Among my line of ambitions, I also want to spend more time on writing fiction. I have this by steampunk inspired fantasy-science fiction I have been working on since 2009, or so. It was also my first attempt at writing, so I started over several times. But now I intend to finish it. I am also working on a boardgame, inspired by this universe. Another project I intend to finish.
All this leaves me wondering, what is Tupperware Steampunks place in all this... Well, I don't know. Writing this blog took me to many places, but right now. Many of these feel like dead ends. I tried inviting guest writers: no responds. Asked, people for idea's and feedback: no responds. I did get a lot of promises, but few of these were actually kept. So, I tend to wonder, why do I bother? I invested alot of time and money in attempts to write this blog and create different content, like video's. But it's just something that can't be done by one person. I can work alone, but enough is enough. I need people to motivate me and inspire me to keep going
Now, I know there are people that are loyal readers of this blog. I thank you for that. But I need some input or feedback. Some rewards for my work.
I might have to reinvent this blog. Discover what I want to do. Dankaert Lexicon will keep exciting, I will keep doing lectures. I will give to presentations on Emporium Vernesque a matter a fact. I will probably keep posting to this blog, but it will probably be updates and the like. Maybe, if I think of a new subject I will write about it. But right now, inspiration is lacking.
So, let me know what you think. Any suggestions and word of wisdom are welcome.
