The website A-List Bloggers www.alistbloggingbootcamp.com currently has a post that asks:
'What is your purpose in writing your blog?'
'I write in order to peruse myself' said writer, poet and painter Henri Michaux. I looked up 'peruse': to read or examine, typically with great care. Hmm.
I had been thinking a lot about trying to simplify my life, and writing a blog about it gave me the opportunity to put my thoughts and feelings into order, and into words.
The best advice was 'One topic at a time, and one aspect of that topic at a time'. (I don't remember where I read that.) This gave me a structure which suited me. I could break down this big subject into bite size pieces and think a little more deeply about each one....
I know that at least one of my readers writes a blog, and one has a photo blog, and at least two of you are professional writers - it would be fun if you would leave a comment telling us about your blogs and writing....please..
..the other purpose was to share my thoughts....tomorrow's post..
