Something that amazes me is that there are several people sitting out there on blogs telling eveyrone that fpr so and so much money, they will teach how to write. How not to be boring and how to make people pilgrimage towards your blog, so that you in one way or another can make some hard earned (or not so hard earned?) money off of them.
Usually, reading those blogs, for the first time I’m entruiged. But after a while they are the ones that just build up in my feader never getting read. Because it’s the same thing over and over again on each and every last one of them. Write in paragraphs, make sure you have some sort of heading or people wont stay focused and interested enough to read, keep the writing moderately short.
All I hear is bla bla bla.
Now I can agree that a picture helps you take the post in and want to read the words. A picture saying over a thousand words itself, but posting a picture of a hand holding a pen or something generic of the sort is just agravating. And honestly telling me that they think we readers are so stupid, uneducated, unfocused that we can’t read their post without visual help. See monkey, spell M-O-N-K-E-Y. Picture books for adults.
If you’re in the blogging business to make money I will tell you right away, your chances of making a living out of it is approximetly the same as you making a living out of being an actor. It’s slim. Don’t do something for the money. Do it, because you love it.
The only one making money out of that E-book you just bought, is the author himself.
