My thoughts on blogging…

070802_journal-mythoughtsonblogging.gif

Explore your reasons for blogging. Why do you blog? How does it differ from keeping a written journal or a visual journal? Is a blog a modern-day hi-tech diary, or something completely different?

Or here is an alternative prompt: Take one of your blog posts and turn it into a journal page. Print out photos from your post… or sketch them on your journal page. Print out the text and paste on the page… or handwrite them.

· · ·

Grab your journal and unleash that inner artist. Work fast and free, don’t stop to judge or second guess yourself. Just create! And if you’d like to share with us, post on your blog, then leave your link* in the comments section of this post so we can go check it out.

* To ensure it is easy for us to find your artwork, please provide a link to a static page that will always show your submission, and not your website’s main page.

    This is a journal post from last year…and as I reread it, I feel it still holds true…and it is one of the reasons that I blog…I blog to share who I am … what I do…where I have been…and where I am going!

    I started blogging over 2 years ago because I was bored, now I blog because I’m addicted! :) haha. Anyway, I just posted one of my journal pages…it is really a collage with my commentary, but it is fun and combines several of my PBL blog posts into one small little journal page. Okay enough talk, here ya go:
