Alexandra Bogdanovic's Blog: That's life... - Posts Tagged "writing-exercise"

For some authors, blogging is a marketing tool. For others, it's a writing exercise. For me, it began as both, and as such often felt like a bit of a chore. But now it's just plain fun.
It is in that spirit that I am penning this, my 40th blog, and as always, I'm thrilled to have you along for the ride.
First and foremost, I'd like to extend my heartfelt thanks to each and every one of you for taking the time to read my weekly posts. With so many authors and bloggers vying for readers' attention, I am honored that you have chosen to join me on what's been an incredible journey.
Looking back, it's clear to see the steep learning curve I went through as I tried to find my "voice" or craft my identity as a blogger. From my first, introductory post in May to my initial posts about writing and related issues, I endeavored to find the style and topics that would resonate with readers.
And in hindsight, it's easy to spot the posts which have done just that. Reflections on the loss of a pet; a birthday celebration; advice on how to handle mainstream media interviews...
In the end, whether it's in print or in person, I'll always be the same snarffy, sarcastic, irreverent, outspoken, brash, sensitive, compassionate woman you've come to know... and possibly even love.
Until next time, "That's life..."
