Verb on Blogging.
Active is the word to describe what a blog should be. "Active" as in "moving along". Blog when you have something to say and even when you don't.
I don't know how to blog, so don't ask. If blogging were a real talent, I would not know how to describe blogging to anyone as I am still a novice myself and wonder why anyone reads blogs. Well, I read them when they are interesting, informative and uh, funny.
I don't have a problem with a blank page, I can fill up a blank page (or screen) pretty quickly. But would anyone want to read it? Probably not. And, guess what? No one does. My blogs are various and wide spread. I post in at least one blog a day and to my knowledge, almost none have been read. So, why would I continue to blog? To clear my mind? To haphazardly spew out words and verbs to the stratosphere?
Not really. I just want to add links to my websites. Some blogging places do that quite well. So I blog.
The thing I need to learn is how to do it right. Make my ramblings count for something. If someone had read one of my blogs, just once in the last month, I would have fallen in love. No doodah man.
I suppose one of the reasons (other than the links) that I love to blog is to read my own words on the screen. How stupid is that? Pretty much:
"Stupid is as stupid does." - Forrest Gump
But, I can tell you that it is a necessary "active" part of being a copywriter. Write, write and write some more. I actually don't care that people do not read my blogs - as long as google likes them, I consider myself well read.
