I am new to blogging and writing, so please bear with me.

For the past year, I have been seriously trying to start a blog. I first started out with 5 different blogs, and then each time I wanted to write about something new, I started a new blog. Now, instead of doing all of that, I am just making one blog, and posting about things as they come up and impact my life.

I found this great article online, and I wanted to share it. It is 105 writing tips from professional writers. 


The one that struck me the most was:
#5. EB White: Just write. The author of Charlotte’s Web, one of the most beloved of children’s books, said that “I admire anybody who has the guts to write anything at all.”

Personally, this blog is for me, but in my head, I am writing to you, my audience. Whether you came across my blog by accident, or you are a faithful follower who believes in what I write about, I enjoy your visits, and I envision many people reading this and gaining inspiration.

I am taking the courage to commit to writing: something, anything, at least to get a picture or a few words out there. I am already proud of myself, and I am not worried about what others may think, but for all of you who are reading this, I wanted to say thank you, and please forgive me if each and everyone one of the posts are not perfect. I do my best to spell, write, and edit correctly, but due to time constraints, I often have no more than 10 to 15 minutes to get a post written.

I will work diligently to getting this blog "reader worthy", and in the  mean time, I hope you can bear with the "mess" of a blog I am publishing. One day, hopefully soon, you will see my name on books, but until then, blog, I must.

Thanks, and let me know how you have turned your blogs into something more. I love any and all advice, comments, and/or criticism. Let me know if I am doing something silly or if something looks bad. I need YOUR input!!!
