How To Write Your First Blog Post


I feel really silly writing my first blog post. Possibly because I know no one might even read this. Ever. But just in case someone does…pitter patter let’s get at ‘er.
I was all gung-ho about getting a blog going, mostly to release some of this pent-up need for writing, but when I actually sat down to write my first entry…I was stumped. So what does every great writer do? Well I’m not sure exactly, but I took to the search engine for inspiration! And what do you know, someone named Mark wrote a wonderful little article on just the subject. So here we go:

Who am I? I’m a prairie girl…hence the name of the blog. I like to write, take photos, plan things (like my upcoming wedding), craft, be outside, bake and just about everything in between.  I work in TV, but currently the only time I can watch TV is when I’m at the gym.

Why am I blogging? Good question. I like to write, and don’t do enough of it. (I didn’t say I was good at it either!) It’s also a way for me to start taking more photos. Oh yes and one last reason-I ask my coworkers to blog as part of their job, so I figured it was about time I experience it too. 

What will I be blogging about? A bit of this, a bit of that. You may get some crafting happening…you may get some recipes happening, we’ll see what mood I am in. Oh yes – and photos – many photos.

How can you leave feedback? Please leave feedback! Comment, send me links, let’s chat! 

Well that was divine. I look forward to blogging with all of you.
Oh yes –and here’s a link to Mark’s blog in case you want to start one of these babies up yourself…http://www.searchengineguide.com/mack-collier/how-to-write-your-first-blog-post.php
