Me, Me, Me!
I love how my site tracker makes my day. I finally have something to write in my blog.
I followed a visitor link back to a fellow writer's blog that praised my Web site before it said that my blog was "a little too much me, me, me." I beg to disagree -- my whole site, not just my blog, is me, me, me. That's the point. I have a portfolio site, with a blog, to sell nothing but me, me, me. Don't you?
Tell me, please, what else would I write about in my blog? I am open to suggestions. Just a few caveats: I don't do religion, sex, or politics. I'm not too happy with my humor, and I'd rather not pretend to be holier/wiser/hotter/cooler/greater-than-thou. And I won't blog about how you can be a good writer -- I already do that in my Web site.
My Suite101 column on inspiration/motivation is already about you, you, you, with some us, us, us, and a few he, she, it, them. Okay, there are a number of I, me, myself there, too, but only to add a personal touch to the life lessons I share.
Admittedly, I started doing a blog just last year (half-heartedly, at that). I've had my Web site since 1998 and saw no need for a blog since I code my own HTML and can very quickly post anything I want. So, when I finally succumbed to the overpowering wave of the blog phenomenon, my dilemma was its focus.
I looked around and, guess what, bloggers mostly wrote about their own day-to-day experiences, unsolicited opinions, and states of mind. Unless they had ulterior motives -- like become famous. In which case they do religion, sex, politics, humor, and holier-than-thou columns.
I don't want to be famous. I just want to share my simple joys -- handmade jewelry, pancakes, frogs, and chocolates. If in the process I end up talking about me, me, me, I'm sure you'll understand. After all, it -is- MY blog!
