2nd Attempt

This will be my second attempt at blogging. The first attempt I wrote one blog and then never checked it again. I remember feeling as though it was a relatively clever blog. The one entry.

I really like reading other peoples blogs.  I feel as though blogging presents too much pressure to the laymen blogger. I have a difficult time believing that anyone will care to read about the randomness I decide to write about. I'm not a skilled writer nor do I have the ability to fabricate witty quips about events that may have transpired throughout my day. I feel as though it must be bennificial to do. It is something that exercises your brain I suppose. It's not watching T.V. at the very least.

What do I talk about? Do I take a self involved approach and just talk about me or do I try and think of interesting things I come across outside myself? I can't really pour out my heart and soul into the entries for obvious reasons. Should I talk about things I cook and eat and troubles I encounter in my garden? I did take a level one beekeeping course this weekend. Is that something anyone would care to read about? Or is that something that need not be taken into consideration?

I think I need a blogging mentor.

  1. Hi Melissa,

    I like the art house look here.

    For some potential inspiration, check out Heather Armstrong's blog, if you haven't already. She is a pro and I believe the blog is big enough to employ her husband too.

    And yes, people do actually care that you took a beekeeping course!
