With the inspiration of Melissa Sugar-Gold's blogfest, my Best of the Best this time focuses on blogging.
I've been writing for a while and those close to me knew I had been working on a "book". As the months ticked by, they asked less frequently (some stopped asking altogether), and I think they started doubting I had actually put words to paper. So I started a blog to give people I knew a place to read my story. Proof, if you will :)
Then I realized blogs need to be more than what my original plan entailed *shock and awe*. I've been throwing stuff on here for a few months now, evolving as a blogger, and in need of a blog makeover. A huge thanks goes to Cassie (she's offering up blog critiques right now!), who, as always, pointed me in the right direction :) And thank you to all the blogs I follow, I've tried to pick up on your lead!
Best of the Best--blogging:

Hi Hope, blogs can be tricky to get a handle on, but you're doing the right thing. Visiting other blogs and figuring out what you want yours to be. The best advice I ever got was to look at my blog and decide what I wanted it to be and then streamline it for that purpose. Are you writing to inspire other writers? To provide writing tools? As an outlet mainly for yourself? Good luck!
ReplyDeleteHi Hope!!! *waves* I love when blog tips are being handed out! When I started blogging a few years ago it was rough learning all on my own!
ReplyDeleteWhat Lindsay said is perfect! Finding your purpose and rolling with it is key! You can always mold it as you go along. I share all about my writing life and hand out tips... however, that doesn't mean I don't talk about the silly things that happen in my life, since being a writer is often entertaining! I also allow others to do guest posts and interviews to get the word out such fabulous bloggers. Helping others, helps you!

ReplyDeleteHi, I just found your blog via Cassie's blog!
ReplyDeleteI had to comment on this post because I am in the exact same position as you. I have been writing a book for a very long time, and people used to ask about it all the time. For a while, circumstances meant I had to stop writing it, but now I'm back and get the feeling that nobody entirely believed I wrote anything fictional lol!
Blogging is sort of new to me. I have blogged before, but never about fiction. It's all very exciting! :D
