NOVEMBER/DECEMBER 2017<br />

I have on my blog both an “About Me’<br />

page and a “About the Blog’ page. I want<br />

my readers to feel like they know me, and<br />

i dont want them to be afraid to know me<br />

as a person and a writer. It's a nice<br />

personal touch that shows your human<br />

side to the readers, if that makes sense.<br />

Most people like to read about the author<br />

and their likes/dislikes, what drives them<br />

to create content, what they read and<br />

dont. It helps bring you closer to the<br />

readers, it doesn't even have to be that big<br />

either! Just a small segment at the end of a<br />

post or on a different tab on the site,<br />

stating a few little facts about yourself can<br />

really set the pace for great things to<br />

happen!<br />

Seeing things they relate to helps your<br />

readers be more likely to leave a<br />

comment, and you could make some new<br />

friends along the way! I would definitely<br />

say it’s a great thing is to put yourself out<br />

there a little more.<br />

For me personally, I can’t work in a noisy<br />

environment. I have to be on my own<br />

somewhere, where I can collect my<br />

thoughts and express them all while<br />

making sense.<br />

For me, my "workplace" is my bedroom<br />

in front of the window. It's so hard for<br />

you to create content you believe in and<br />

love while you are in a space you don’t<br />

love. So if you’re the type of person who<br />

likes to be around noise and lively people<br />

while working, going to a library will<br />

probably not be ideal for you.<br />

Try sitting in a public park, or going to a<br />

restaurant. Or if you enjoy quiet, like me,<br />

sit in your bedroom or office. And the<br />

library would be great for you if you like<br />

that! Just make sure you’re in a place<br />

where you can focus. You don’t want to<br />

be so distracted that you can’t write a<br />

proper sentence!<br />
