To Blog or Not to Blog?

I am a teacher. That keeps me busy, especially during the week. I have a wonderful family. They keep me happily busy at home. I am an author. That keeps me busy during some of my free time and family time. But being a blogger...sometimes I find myself staring at a blank page with a flashing cursor. Why is it so much easier to write a book that a short blog? I think I may have the answer.

I think that blogging is much more personal and you are opening yourself up to a world of strangers. Sharing experiences and advice can be therapeutic for both the writer and the audience. Agree or not, expressing ourselves is the beginning of creativity.

So, in short, read and share blogs that you enjoy. Encourage and support those who write. Remember...they are sharing a piece of themselves with you!
