Plan to blog my way out of the bog
Hello everyone, I'm a writer who has been bogged down trying to do things the traditional, old fashioned way but events have conspired recently to point me in a new direction. So far, I've been content to be a journalist and business-writer because doing those things brought in a steady paycheque. I've been reluctant to take the risks involved in novel writing, but that's really what I want to do. In my home office, I have a little plaque that contains the George Eliot quote, "It's never too late to be what you might have been." Last week I was dusting and it fell off a shelf and hit me on the head. Then yesterday, afternoon, I received an emailed 'message of the day' it was also George Eliot's quote. Last night my cousin called and told me about John Locke and his book, "How I sold one million e-books in five months." I did a little research and found out that blogging played a huge role in Locke's achievement -- that and being able to write decent books that people want to read. I know I can write decent books, so I'm going to dust off some old manuscripts, write some new ones, and learn about blogging so I can follow in Locke's footsteps -- Lockestep, you might say (never met a pun I didn't enjoy). Today is the first day of a new life for me, one where I will end up being who I should have been.

Reasons to blog
I blog for many diffferent reasons. Sometimes, I blog for self-expression. I blog also as a way of keeping notes to myself. I blog also as a way of having materials to show to others. One "other: that I try to impress and affect with my blogging is Mr Larry Page and his friend Serge. Here are some materials that they should look at and consider in terms of its implications for different searches:
