In this week’s activity- we are doing some personal “me work. “ haha. How do I see myself as a blogger? I might categorize my style and myself, as introvert- I discuss a lot of what is going through my head and life realizations. I think I do this because- for me, when I write something, it’s as though I have processed something in a way my mind agrees with. My friends are always keen to notice the detail or time I will spend on choosing the most correct word to most accurately communicate what I am thinking. In my introvert-ness this attention to detail helps me figure things out.

I think that Rebecca Blood describes what I feel blogs do, “ …weblogs point to, comment on, and spread information according to their own, quirky criteria.”

I notice that some bloggers choose to blog about things that they read about- I approach the blog writing process a little different. I will think of something that I want to figure out or that I think is interesting- and then I will research it and try to find other sources and means of media to communicate in more than one dimension.

As a blogger, I hope to learn to write in slightly different voice, less familiar to me and do so more effectively. My main goal is to just become a better writer in general because it is something that I enjoy and I will continue to practice, as well as pursue my journey to become a “Jedi-Master” of writing. May the force be with me…?
