Darren’s 8 Tips for When a Blogger Gets Sick

Unfortunately, I’m a week late in reading Darren Rowse’s post 8 Things to do on your blog when you’re sick.

It’s not quite a week, but several days, since a mysterious bug dropped me like a sack of spuds. In between coughing and sleeping I thought about blogging, but that was about it.

I don’t feel bad about looking after myself. But If I’d read Darren’s post and had known I was about to come down with something, I might have had the wit to arrange for something to happen while I was out of action.

Like having a standby arrangement with a colleague to be a guest blogger.

On a longer term basis, the idea of having some posts in reserve for just such an eventuality makes a lot of sense.

  1. Hope you’re well on your way to getting rid of the bug – I had my own bug last week as well that kicked in my guts for a while there.

    So I too have learned the lesson of having backup content … which I didn’t :-)
