| My messy desk, where the magic happens |
1: How do you decide what to write about?
2: Do you know before you draft a post, what you are going to say?
3: Why do you blog?
4: Does reading other blogs influence your posts?
5: How many posts do you have written in advance?
My answers:
1: How do you decide what to write about? Having theme days really helps, it gives me a framework. I always start with a photo.
2: Do you know before you draft a post, what you are going to say? Not really, sometimes I randomly scroll through the photo archive (nearly 100,000 images) and find one that inspires me.
3: Why do you blog? To share photos and thoughts, to improve my writing, and to be a part of the blogging network or family.
4: Does reading other blogs influence your posts? Yes, probably once a week, I write a post inspired by a post that I have read.
5: How many posts do you have written in advance? At the time I wrote this, I had 11 scheduled posts, and a few more in draft.
Please share your answers in the comments.
1: How do you decide what to write about? Sometimes it is obvious - say when I have been out on a long walk. At other times I have no idea until I sit down at the computer. Then something just stirs in my brain.
ReplyDelete2: Do you know before you draft a post, what you are going to say? That can happen but frequently the magical process of writing causes unexpected paths to open up.
3: Why do you blog? Because it's creative and I do not have to go through a publisher. Shazam! And it's there - the tapestry of my life and sharing it with others gives me a buzz.
4: Does reading other blogs influence your posts? Not really. Publish and be damned I say but I am sure that subconsciously my favoured bloggers have influenced my output.
5: How many posts do you have written in advance? None. The cupboard is always bare.
P.S. I chuckled about your untidy command station because it is very similar to mine!
