Blogging is Back - 2026 Trends Say

 I heard it from a professional content creator a few weeks ago that blogging is back.  Thanks to the same looking posts, AI, fast paced scrolling and lack of personality.  Many want to go back to sharing more than 35 words or a few seconds of time.  I noticed on youtube that several influencers are going toward a slow living trend.  I knew they would burn out - you can't do all that - and still vlog/blog/post about it multiple times a week.   I know many of them have staff that do most of the things for them.  However, you became an influencer because of your originality...not what you've grown in to.  O.k. I'm off my soap box now.  I believe AI free will be the next thing.  I will remain AI free.  My content has always been original - flop or not.  

So, as I move forward into a less mobile world, blogging I hope to keep up with.  I may in time need a device that types for me.  Until then, I will keep moving my fingers the best I can.  



Here is our dog Lady as I am sitting working on this...she thinks the chair is hers.  

So things you may see more of in 2026


















Oh, I've tried just about every little "gimmick" to get people to read my blog:  Motivational Monday, Tips on Tuesday, Whatcha Got Wednesday, Thrifscore Thursday and Farmhouse Friday.  What it is you like to read about or see on the blogs you love?  

Remember the "bloghops" - I sure miss those.  I gained many followers from sharing on those hosted by other blogs.  

Any tips or ideas of content you would like to see from me?

Thanks.
