TIP
BE YOURSELF
Writing a good blog should be like having an engaging conversation with a friend. You want it to be personal, inviting, and enjoyable.

TIP
SPELLCHECK
Spellchecking is one of the easiest ways to catch simple errors that might otherwise mar your message.

TIP
READ AND REREAD
I make grammar mistakes all the time. More than I care to admit... But, nothing annoys readers more than glaring errors in your writing, so be wary of what mistakes you are prone to make and reread all of your entries (TWICE) if necessary! A quick run through can help catch problems and give your post more clarity.

TIP
READ IT OUT LOUD
It is one of the best ways to catch errors, clunky sentences and awkward phrasing. Think of your blog as a project in public speaking! You are putting your words out there for everyone to hear and you want to make sure that you sound confident and correct.

TIP
PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT
Write as much as possible! The more comfortable you become with your own voice the more you'll be able to convey with your writing. Over time you will even carve out a distinctive style that is characteristic of you and defines your personality.
