Do you want to clarify your blog’s purpose? Commit (or re-commit) to a more regular blogging practice? Has “write on my blog” been languishing on your to-do list for far too long?

If your blog is in need of rejuvenation or resuscitation, this workshop will give you fresh inspiration, help you explore new directions, and also dispense some brass tacks information.

“Three obstacles people encounter when they start to blog,” says Britt Bravp, “are time, traffic and topics. I can give you tools to help you overcome these obstacles, jumpstart your blog, and very possibly fall in love with it all over again!”

“We’ll talk about how to find more time to blog, how to create an editorial calendar, how to increase traffic and readership, and how to format your posts to better draw readers in.

“But more importantly, we’ll also discuss ways to rev up your enthusiasm by learning how to generate more fun topics, how to develop your own unique blogging “voice,” and how to write different types of posts (e.g. personal story, how-to, and guest posts).”

Please bring to class:

* Print-outs of 2-3 blog posts that make you say, “I wanna blog like that!”
* A photo of an experience, or event you’d like to write about on their blog
* 2-3 magazines you don’t mind cutting up
