how to make your first blog post

So you want to start a blog? The hardest part is starting. Do you know how intimidating "The First Post" is? You only get one first post; it’s got to be good.


First off, you have to introduce yourself (ex. Hi, I’m luna lablue, a 24-almost-25-year-old from Southern Wisconsin. I like books, the color green, and Doctor Who)


Second, you are suppose to mention why you are blogging (ex 1. I love to write and am inspired and want to give my inspiration to you all, make you laugh, cry, and be more inspired. ex. 2. I’m bored and felt like it.)


Third, what am I going to be blogging about (ex. um…[how do I make this not sound self-centered?]…me?)


Last, but the most important of all, you've got to keep it interesting to keep people reading (ex. As I traveled the empty lot at the break of dawn, the sun slowly starting to beat down on my head, a crow’s call ringing though the foggy air, I dreaded the treachery I knew lay on the path before me. Trying to shake off the feeling of doom that settled in the pit of my stomach, trying to ignore the desire to flee my awaited fate, I continued to put one foot in front of the other. After what seemed like an eternity I reached the end of the lot. I slowly crept into the deserted building. Searching the empty building I finally found what I was looking for, my hands shook with the gravity and anticipation of what I was about to do. Closing my eyes and taking a deep breath, I pushed the buttons and clocked in for my desk job.)


Trying to fit all of those things into a first blog post is a lot of work and pressure. Make sure you do it right! Good Luck!


-Love,
