Blaugust 2025: Intro

Let the month-long blognanza begin!

If you haven’t heard of Blaugust, that’s OK—I just discovered it myself a week ago!

As I understand it, Blaugust is an annual month-long blogging bonanza (blognanza?) which originated in the indie gaming space, and participants simply try to blog every day of the month of August. Or at least that was the original point, and since then many people don’t necessarily go that hard, as the point is to promote blogging and extol its virtues, not gatekeep people.

I learned about it from Nick Simson, who linked this Indiecator post, and I really liked the idea, so I’m trying to do it.

Since I doubt I’ll have the bandwidth to come up with a fresh idea and then write about it on a daily (DAILY!) basis, I expect I’ll rely on the “official prompts” intended to help out those in need.

So, uhh, let’s see how this goes! 🤞
