I can haz writing stylez
Today is day 15 of the Health Activist Writer’s Month Challenge and the prompt is: Writing with Style.
Writing stylez? I haz that? Oh yez, I definitely haz many writing stylez.
Some times, my posts are serious. Some times my posts are funny. And some times, they are seriously funny. It all depends on the topic and the mood I’m in at the time.
The more serious posts tend to be straight to the point. The lighthearted posts may be a little drawn out. Either way, they get the job done.
Some days, I’m able to just sit down at the computer and start writing. Other times, I break out my handy dandy notebook and start jotting down the thoughts that are bouncing around inside my head. Those tend to be the more serious blog posts. The ones that take the longest to write.
I firmly believe that the harder a blog post is to write, the more it needs to be written.
Most of the time, I come up with a title before I start writing. I find that it helps in developing the tone of the post.
No matter which style my blog posts take on from day to day, they all have one thing in common. They are always done in WordPress. 😉

I don’t always write blog posts, but when I do it’s with help. http://www.flickr.com/photos/saraknic/944905373/

That’s Bes. Rose likes to nap with me, but Bes likes to help on the computer. As in, every time I sit down to work she is resting on one arm or clear across my lap. Makes work a little tricky. 😉

Ah, OK. I’ll try to remember that, but I make no promises. And I can definitely see where a cat on your arm could hinder working. If I were in your position, given my luck, I’d end up with teeth in my arm when I tried to move the cat. lol

Im still a newbie with the blogging and twitter thing – what is wordpress? Is it a blog program like Blogger. I will likely google it but maybe you can share why you like using it.
I agree that the harder it is to write a post the important it is to do so.
I love the cats with bad grammer. I can relate to them.
cheers friend

Christina, WordPress is a blogging platform like Blogger. There are two versions of it; the one that WordPress hosts on their servers and the self hosted one where you can download the software and run it on your own server. I did the later. I run my blog on the self hosted one. I’m a web designer/developer by trade, so I prefer being able to maintain and tweak things myself. Plus there’s the added bonus of not having to deal with ads on my site unless I chose to have them.
Glad you liked the post.
