Blogging
 
Do you write a blog? What do you blog about? I'm curious because I have a blog about my art work. I'm interested in what other people blog about.

I have a blog. It's about 3 sisters who were authors and they wrote over a hundred books between them. I have all their fiction (they wrote both fiction and non fiction) works so I read them and review them.

Sketchy 23-08-2017 04:39 PM

That sounds really interesting Dawn. That's a lot of books to review.

Their mother also was an author and one of the sisters children was an author so once I have finished I will move onto them. Some of their books are quite rare so tracking them down isn't easy.

Do you have to get them on line?

Yes. Fortunately I have them all. Some of their works are available as ebooks but they have been heavily edited.

Thanks for sharing yoyo. What are you going to fill it with?

Sketchy 23-08-2017 06:06 PM

If anyone wants to see my blog I'll pm it. I don't want to post a link here because it has my name on it.

Serendipity. 23-08-2017 06:40 PM

I would love to see your blog Lorraine.

Sketchy 23-08-2017 06:41 PM

I'll pm the details.

I've actually just started a blog about my mental health. I 'came out' on fb there about 3 days ago. After 15 years of being in the closet with it I figured it was time to stop being ashamed and if anyone has an issue with it they can just unfriend me.

Sketchy 23-08-2017 07:03 PM

That must be therapeutic to do Amy. And brave. It will help other people in the same situation.
I've mentioned mental ill health in my blog because some of my paintings are based on it, and my poetry is often about it.

Voldemort 23-08-2017 07:56 PM

I'm not sure if it's therapeutic yet but I certainly feel a bit liberated not having to hide being in the hospital etc.

one_step_closer 23-08-2017 08:35 PM

I'm always looking for new blogs to follow so PM me anyone who has one and doesn't mind me reading. I only have a private blog, have had public blogs before about mental health but ended up deleting them.

Voldemort 23-08-2017 08:58 PM

Mine is schizogirlsite.wordpress.com if anyone wants a gander. There's only two posts so far though.

one_step_closer 23-08-2017 09:10 PM

Will add it to my list Amy. :-)

Sketchy 23-08-2017 09:11 PM

I read your blog Amy. Very honest and well written. Thinking of you and hoping things get better.

Voldemort 23-08-2017 09:15 PM

Thanks. I'm hoping it will help just 1 person feel less alone. Or give someone the courage to ask for help. I'm done hiding now. This is me. The good and the bad. Or some ***** like that. :P

Sketchy 23-08-2017 09:19 PM

It must be a weight off your mind to not hide anymore. I'm sure your blog will help others too.
