I find it important to find a blog software that is easy to use, and gives you the format you want. Also something I struggle with is keeping the passion alive for my blog and finding things to blog about. It's that willpower to not give up, that separates the shakers from the wannabes.

Another thing I would add is to get out there and comment on other blogs -- that's one reason I keep coming back to your blog. When there is a dialogue, it's always more inticing to read the post.

Believe it or not, I found some interesting trends (http://www.odesk.com/trends/Tech%20Writer) that show freelance writing (inclusive of blogwriting) is steadily on the rise. Who would have thought that we'd be the ones thriving during these hard times. Very exciting! This is a great post, and I think very appropriate right now, with the economy the way it is.

Wilke Fri, 26 Sep 2008 16:53:55 +0000 http://theadventurouswriter.com/blogwriting/?p=28#comment-206 Laurie, I'd like to add, "Think like a blog reader." Most people won't create content, but they will react to via reading, commenting, forwarding, etc. To build your audience, you must make your blog as easy to share as possible. Content, writing, style, layout, programming, etc., all all important. But if that person has to open an email program, cut and paste your link into that email, assign recipients...the chances of a pass-along rate are pretty slim to none. Laurie,
