Hahaha thought I’d add to the female commenter population here. A) Megan Fox is amazing. B) so is this blog post!

My blogging is quite involved and asks a lot from my readers to stick through my longer (than average) posts, but because it’s also quite exploratory – writing about the adventure and the lessons learnt AS I figure them out, posts are often infrequent and definitely sporadic.

Working on this should help accessibility for my readers. Thanks for a great read.

Hi Nikki. Thanks for stopping by! Believe me, the hardest part is getting started. Reading is great for inspiration, but there’s nothing better than writing – sometimes even forcing yourself to put pen to paper. Dedicate time to writing and above all, stay consistent.

Hope to see you around here more often!

I just came across your site and I too am a new blogger. I seem to keep getting stuck writing what and how I think I am supposed to be writing (I think I’m reading too many blogs…) instead of just writing what I want. Everything you wrote has been helpful, I will definitely be back.

Thank you Matt, for your words of encouragement. I will definitely keep on writing because strangely enough, I can not do without it anymore

Don't give up Anyes! I know it's tough to keep up with things, but stick with it (if you love writing). If you ever need someone to bounce ideas off of, feel free to reach out. Cheers!

I just started blogging about 4 months ago and I was about to give up, then I am reading this…Awesome timing.

So I’ll admit, this was the one time that I really “baited” people in with the headline (not to say I don’t always consider buzz-worth headlines, but Megan Fox has since become one of my top search-terms here on LWP – surprise surprise).

At the end of the day, as you said, you have to write with emotion and let people see that side of you – the “human” element is what readers really connect with (as long as it’s genuine).

Buzz-Worthy Headlines… anything without pants is going to get some reaction. Maybe I should call my blog Naked Jewelry! lol I’d just be afraid of what Google Ads I would get!

I love the line about writing from the heart. So true. If it’s not from the heart, everyone will see that.
