The BWF Blog has stagnated

I decided about a month ago that I needed to stop posting here so much, for a couple of reasons. First, I have too much going on around the house - projects wise - to try and keep the blog interesting. But more importantly, I needed to see if this thing could be self-sustaining.

It seemed that for the most part, aside from a couple of guys, I was doing most of the posting here. I didn't start this blog to hear myself talk, I started it so each of you would have a placce to exchange pics of each other's collections and inform each other about different Black With Flames diecast - old or new - that you either had or knew of. I wanted to give everyone a place to not only talk about BWFs and share information about them, but to have a place to trade for them as well.

So I wanted to see how the blog would do on its own, and the answer is an obvious "not so good". I don't have the time, energy, or interest to write a blog for a handful of people to read, I had hoped this would keep itself going, and that isn't happening. All of this means that there really isn't much interest in a BWF blog in the first place; the topic probably is too "narrow" of a subject to support it.

I'm going to try and set up a website format, just to se if that has any more success than the blog format, and I'll notify everyone when that happens. But if the support isn't there, then it isn't there.

It looks like this place is really turning out well. Congrats Rich. I have been dealing with some stuff and trying my hardest to get into a new dealership and that will be happening in a few weeks. My latest BWF is the HW Dodge Van picked up 3 the other day and already have one drilled out.
