Meet Bowser (Charley and Lindsay Belcher's dog, destined to be a dog model, so I thought why not start here?!) |
This is a great question and don't feel stupid if you didn't know. A lot of people have heard of a blog, but don't really know "exactly" what a blog is and frankly, feel silly asking. That's why I thought it would be good to give y'all a 4-1-1 on blogging.
First, the official definition:
Here's how I explain it: I look at a blog like an online journal or diary. I love to write, but I have never been very good about keeping all my thoughts in one place, like a physical diary next to my bed. So instead, I write down story ideas everywhere, in a spiral notebook, in my iPhone notes...on post-its! Then, when I'm ready, I gather everything and start typing away on my computer...and voila, there you go, my blog.
I actually started my blog in 2011, when my kids were just 4 and 6...
Two of my fav blog subjects |
My hope is that the person on the other end (YOU) will "get it". Hopefully relate with what I'm writing about and feel a little less alone in this motherhood thing or life in general.
People "blog" about all sorts of things: motherhood, travel, fitness, health, money, celebrities, pets, food, music, sports...the possibilities are endless! Everyone has a story to tell or something important to share!
I gotta be honest, I've been pretty blown away by the reaction to my blog. Just this past weekend I was amazed at how many people asked me about it. Old friends and new friends, who I had no idea even knew I had a blog, said they were reading it! Pretty cool!
So that's pretty much it in a nutshell. If you'd like to find a more detailed description of a blog check out Wikipedia...it might be TLTR (that's short for "too long to read") for some...I'm more into the reader digest version of life, in most cases :).
So thanks again for reading, hope you stick with me. I have a REALLY FUN one coming up later this week, so stay tuned and keep LIKING AND SHARING...sharing is CARING!
