I am going to take this next week to do some serious soul-searching for my blog. In talking with a friend last night I realized that I DO love to write, and while that wasn’t the purpose of my blog originally, now that I have it I might as well use it. But what would I write about? It was easy to update you on what was going on when I was in England (when I felt like writing) or when funny things happen at school or work…but now, in the beginning of summer, I’d like to rekindle this relationship I have with writing.
He had some good things to say about blogs. First off they should be no more than 400-500 words (AMEN!) and they should have a specific purpose. This is where it gets tricky. I KNOW you don’t want to hear a ramble so you’d like it short. Shoot, I’d like it to be short (you already know how I feel about long blogs). But as for the specific purpose of a blog, that’s where I get stuck. When you go to an Italian restaurant you go because you want Italian, and you definitely don’t go to Schlitterbahn to watch a movie. So for what reason will you be reading this blog? That is something to be determined between now and the next post!
And this is 235 words, FYI. ;)

I read your blog because I like YOU, and because you write fun, witty and intelligent (and not forever long) updates. Sometimes broad strokes, and sometimes detailed stories. But you do write good stories!! :)
ReplyDeleteI read your blog because I like feeling connected to you, even if we don't see each other all the time. You're life is always interesting to me :)
ReplyDeleteThen maybe I should have a schedule or something!! ;) Melancholy Monday, Tired Tuesday, Wound up Wednesday, Thoughtful Thursday, Funny Friday...lol
