I love it when Austin Kleon [writes about blogging](https://austinkleon.com/2020/09/09/15-years-of-blogging-and-3-reasons-to-keep-going/?ref=matthewbogart.net).

Three reasons he keeps blogging:

> 1\. To leave a trace  
>  
> 2\. To figure out what I have to say.   
>  
> 3\. Because I like it.

It’s a [good post](https://austinkleon.com/2020/09/09/15-years-of-blogging-and-3-reasons-to-keep-going/?ref=matthewbogart.net).
