When nothing happens and you blog about it.
This is what happens when nothing happens to you. When you go to work, the gym and home again every day. And nothing happens. You write a blog post about nothing happening and hey presto, you blogged about what happens when nothing happens. Magic, huh!? This is what happens when you had hoped for a…

Get Blogged.
This weekend was a bit of a moment for my family, blog wise. My brother posted on his blog for the first time since before his almost 18 month old daughter was born and my sister had me open one for her. Both have been instructed that when they are rich and famous they owe…

Why a love of food won’t make you a food blogger.
In my walk down memory lane all of last week {it took me SO long to write that post} it occurred to me that at one point I almost talked myself into making this blog a food blog. I’ve had various thoughts and freak outs over blog niches. Let me tell YOU. But food blogging…

That awkward moment when you forget to blog & people stop visiting.
Yeah, that. I do it all the time. I tell people not to do it. If you blog and enjoy having people who read it, a real community. It kind of helps to write something every now and again. I know that when my stats start to do a squiggly swirl downwards it means that there has been too…

The recap; my Blogger to WordPress experience.
Well, it has been over two months now since blogger broke my heart and forced me out the door. And I thought I’d write a little review post. Not, yet another Blogger vs WordPress post, but a post about my experience changing over. A change over I never planned to make. My blog is a personal/lifestyle blog,…

The day Blogger broke my heart + WordPress picked up the pieces

It happened Thursday night around 10 pm. I was happily commenting away, and all of a sudden, my newly linked Google+ Blogger profile said it was no longer active. I was redirected to the dashboard, where, holy moly, my blogs were GONE. Within seconds I was automatically logged out. When I was asked to sign…

So you’re starting a blog…
Let me tell you a few things I wish some had told me. You don’t HAVE to have a niche. In my opinion more and more blogs are moving towards the lifestyle type blog. The category formally know as a personal blog. Except the ones starting by people with a specific business style intention. I’m…

Suger’s Rules for Blogging
Business cards and media packs are great but if you can’t back them up with good blog, there is no point. In fact too soon and there is no point either. Blog about what you know, how you know to do it and when it suits you to do so. Anything else is someone else’s…
