Better writing, better blogging, better overall?
I’m taking a business writing course at Big University. and enjoying taking a closer look at my writing. This is exciting and educational opportunity, and I’m finding that not only is it good for work, but it also has me looking at my blog writing a little differently too.
I maintain a number of blogs as well as a personal journal. If asked I’ve always said that the blogs are written for the public and the journal is written for me. Reviewing my writing has revealed that while I focus on different topics between the two locations, my posting style is the same. I dont spend much time in thinking about how I’m going to write about my topic. I think about the topic and realize what makes it different enough to post here, but thats about it. There is no thought given to why my readers want to read about it, what I want them to get out of it, or how I’m going to approach it.
So that’s going to change. When writing my posts for both Seattlejo.com and FatandCrafty.com/fac I’ll sit down and look at the topic and figure out what I want you to get out of it, and what I think you want to learn out of it. My goal is to keep posting as frequently as I am ,but to be posting in a more organized professional manner, to post something that is enjoyable to read.
I hope you stay around for the changes.
