Running title: Obligatory why-I’m-not-posting post

To draft the apologetic post bloggers should follow the following structure and instructions. You may add further headings if necessary.

1.1. Post overview (Address your readers in a clear and concise way. Maximum 280 characters)

Regular readers of this blog know that I am a slow blogger to start with. I am comfortable with this style of blogging and hope you appreciate the effort I put into my posts. That said, you may have noticed a change from slow to plain sluggish in the past couple of weeks.

1.2. Post explanation (Describe your excuse for not posting. Maximum 380 characters)

I have some large grant application deadlines coming fast my way (that is, as opposed to my manuscript deadlines that are long gone). These are crucial deadlines– success or failure in securing research funding will determine if I keep posting about insect morphology and evolution or if the topic of this blog changes to something like Archetype: insect taxonomy on a budget.

1.3. Relevance of your blog (In detail describe why your readers should keep subscribing to your feed. Maximum 60 characters)

Wha… 60 characters, are you serious! That is not enough to

1.4. Future prospects (Make up a promise in order to incite false hope among your readers. Maximum 220 characters)

I’ll keep posting any interesting things that come by and, as a break for myself, I promise will definitely assemble one regular morphological post with lots of nice images during the next few days. Stay tuned.
