What If You Hate What You Blog About?

Posted by Jimmy as Blog Tutorials News, Opinion, Tips, Writing The basic premise in blogging, I believe, is that you blog because you want to. As such, you should blog about things and topics that you actually care about. Why blog if you hate what you are blogging about? After all, who is forcing you to remain as a blogger? There are some special cases, though. Ghost blogging is not a secret. There are many people who write for blogs as professionals.

How to Try New Topics

Posted by Jimmy as Blog Tutorial, Tips, Writing If you are maintaining a personal blog, then this post is not for you. How so? Simply because of the fact that in personal blogs, anything goes when it comes to topics. You can talk about anything under the sun and your readership will probably not be affected simply because you did so. I guess that is one reason I love writing for my personal blog.

Story Telling In Your Blog

Posted by Jimmy as Blog Tutorial, Tips, Writing I remember joining writing contests when I was in grade school. I loved the actual writing and appreciated all the input that my mother and English teachers would give me. One thing that stood out from all the pieces of advice that I received is this: Tell a story.

Is There Such A Thing As Too Personal?

Posted by Jimmy as Opinion, Writing I seem to remember posing a similar question in a post a long time ago. How personal can you get when writing for your blog? Is there such a thing as too personal?
