How to Write a Blog

               This is how to write a blog.

·       First, find a topic. You can pick anything at all! You can create a fictional story, review a book, tell someone how to do something, badmouth a person you know (not advised because this is the internet and nothing is private), share a recipe, show appreciation for someone, suggest a product, or pretty much anything- this is your blog post and you can do anything you want with it!

·       Next, organize your writing. Some people can just write exactly what they are thinking and just pretty much throw up words on the page, but it’s best to plan out your thoughts. You can write out an outline or scribble some thoughts on a piece of paper. This can be very helpful, especially so you don’t forget anything.

·       Then, write your blog. Take your thoughts and put then to words. You can do anything with this. You can choose any tone you want, use any type of diction formal or informal, write in short sentences, long, or a variety. You can sound very learned or just make your post an informal greeting. This is your post and you decide what you want to convey to your audience. Your style of writing helps you express your purpose. Normally whatever comes naturally is the best for your blog.

·       Last, revise. Check for spelling errors and weird wording and content errors. This is pretty much a no brainer so you don’t sound like a blithering idiot. You want your blogs to make sense to your readers. You could even have others proof read your blog for you.

If you follow these simple steps you are sure to have a rockin’ blog! Don’t worry about what your readers will think, though. This is your blog so even if you don’t have any readers, it just acts as an outlet for you. Let it be the therapy or fun past time you need it to be. J
