Not to underperform, I decided to do some research on how to write a decent blog. Here are some things I learned:
- First and foremost, your writing style is of great importance. Grammar and spelling aside, the way you write should reflect your personality, or help to convey your message as well as possible.
- Blog readers are impatient. If they read someone's blog, it's because they want to be entertained or informed in some way or other. Because of that, your posts mustn't be overly long: avoid walls of text, trim away all that's unnecessary!
- Pick a topic. That makes it easier to come up with things to post.
After reading up on writing, I started thinking about what I should blog. The best thing I could think about was to ponder about the "small things" in life. Things that move us, annoys us, make us happy... After all, it's the small things that count, or so they say. I have a hunch that I will write the most about nuisances than anything else... We will see where this wreck leads to.
