Don't you find it frustrating when people just stop blogging? I don't understand it... I mean, the thing is you don't really know, there could be some genuine, possibly even tragic reason for it, and the worst thing is that unless you have been in direct contact you can't even get in touch to ask them about it, so you are reduced to leaving comments on their blog in the vain hope that they will read them.
Some blogs are more of a loss than others of course, the cessation of posting on Q & k's blog immediately springs to mind as a major disappointment, and recently both Eric M's excellent blog and the slightly dubious but always entertaining Submit to Black have suddenly stopped in their tracks without the slightest warning or explanation.
Who knows what has happened in these people's lives, possibly things more important than sharing their thoughts with thousands of anonymous readers... or in some cases maybe the well of inspiration simply ran dry? It's particularly perplexing when the person or persons involved have been regular comment leavers on your own blog as well, for a brief period Eric M was an almost daily comment leaver here and his blog was going great guns... and then nothing.
Of course not everyone has the time to post on a daily basis and that's perfectly understandable, this isn't a job after all, I just find it odd that someone would go to all the trouble to start a blog and then suddenly abandon it without a word.
