I am doing this blog for a class in school, but I believe I will expand it beyond just that.
Why do this?
- For my class
- Because it will help me reach out of the bubble I has closed myself in.
I love to read and that is what I will keep this blog about.
To help you get started, here are a few questions:
- Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal? To try and become more social and friendly
- What topics do you think you’ll write about? I love to play video games, but I will keep this blog about my reading for now (forewarning: I will spoil some parts of the book the longer I do this blog and get more comfortable with it)
- Who would you love to connect with via your blog? I would connect to anybody who is willing to give positive feedback and is willing to get to know me
- If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished? I will have hoped to have gained more friends and knowledge on how to navigate social media more effectively, since I have been deprived by parents so far (I know that I sound very young, but I am just trying to keep it very simple. I’d rather not reveal my age just yet, but I am in high school)
Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.
