Expedition Nomadic Adventures

When I began blogging, I will admit I had no idea what I was getting into. I just wanted to write.

I discovered a few things along the way:

• Blogging is hard work.
• It takes time, lots of time.
• Blogging and writing my novel was a difficult balance.

P. S. Hoffman has written a great article on this very subject. 5 Ways an Author Blog Could Kill Your Writing (and What to Do Instead). Here are some highlights.

1. Blogging is a huge investment in time and effort.
2. It robs you of valuable writing time.
3. If you want to write a novel, blogging teaches the wrong skills.
4. Blogging is “information heavy and story light.”
5. If you want to build your storytelling skills – write stories. Readers want to read your stories.
6. Author blogs don’t sell books.
7. To blog well, you must love blogging.

I enjoy sharing with my readers my stories…
