2013: The Agincourt of Weblogging

Posted on 26 December 201321 December 2016 by Richard Carroll

That’s Agincourt from the French perspective, as last year’s success turned out to be shorter-lived than I expected.

Well, maybe “Agincourt” is an exaggeration, but it’s been a lousy year for me on all fronts. Leaving aside personal stuff, post quality was less even than I’d like, and update consistency fell apart in the second half of the year. I do seem to have gotten back on track now, though, and there were some good points throughout the year, so here’s the highlight reel for Everything Is Oll Korrect! in 2013.…

No New Post This Week (Except This One)

Posted on 22 May 2013 by Richard Carroll

I had a project come up over the weekend, when I usually draft my posts, and unfortunately haven’t had a chance to write anything up for the blog. So, rather than rushing and posting something sub-par, I’m taking a short break.

My apologies, but I will be back on schedule next week.…

2012: An OK Year in Review

Posted on 18 December 201221 February 2013 by Richard Carroll

So, with only two weeks left in the year, I thought I’d take a look back and share some thoughts on how Everything is Oll Korrect! fared in 2012, and share some of what I consider the best, or at least most interesting, posts of the last year.

Overall, the blog fared pretty well. It is, by far, the most successful year yet for Everything. Post quality has evened out, at least in my admittedly biased but self-critical opinion, and for the first time I can claim with a straight face that I update regularly. There’s been a post every week except two, in late March and late November. A few weeks had two posts, making my average just above one update per week. I also had more views and comments than ever before, though this is still far from a popular blog.

Now, I don’t go back and re-read my old posts very often, but for the end of the year I did go through the archives and come up with what I think are the highlights of 2012.…

A Few Thoughts About ‘Everything’ and its Future

Posted on 21 October 20127 January 2017 by Richard Carroll

As I’ve mentioned before, when I first began this blog I intended to take an academic approach and post mainly essays and commentaries on works of literature and religion. Even after I started blogging seriously, the only result are a couple lackluster posts on Mishima Yukio, Confucius, and maybe one or two other things that even I can’t remember anymore. The best idea I’ve had for Everything Is Oll Korrect! was changing focus to sharing my impressions on individual works, essentially a reading or viewing journal.…
