Some Secrets To Blogging

I have been blogging a long time and I have found that the secret to a good blog is content, personality and honesty. People I think want to see something real and I try to be that in every post. Another secret is to keep on blogging…the more you do it the better you get at it. 

Finding community and like-minded people can be a huge help too although you do find some folks who are heavy on the criticism. 

Like anything it is good to make it fun and something that allows for expression and reflection. You might even change the world by your words and images. Blogging is awesome and I encourage you to be the star of your own blog. 

Cranky Old Me?

I may or may not have said “suck it up buttercup” to my younger co-workers who were complaining a little. Does this mean I’m a cranky old guy who wants people off his lawn? Lord I hope not.

I am in one of those moods to be a little dark so I changed things again on the blog. Twenty Sixteen is a great theme I have used before that showcases posts and info quite well. You can customize it to be as dark or as light as you want. Part of me is feeling a little “dark and rebellious” so there ya go. Enjoy!

It is very important to know who you are. To make decisions. To show who you are. – Malala Yousafzai

Thanks For Paying Attention Anyway

When someone is critical of a post or ones work that is their opinion, but it can be a learning experience. A critique of your writing can make you better although it can sting at first. I am not the greatest blogger but I try to be open, friendly and informed as much as I can be. I blog from my heart and facts can be missed in points I’m trying to convey. As I said to a blogger punctuation is my kryptonite and I need to brush up on things that I’m writing about. You don’t have to agree with everything I say and that’s OK. Thanks for paying attention anyway. Keep on blogging.
