I know how keen you are to keep reading me – gosh that makes me feel so good – but alas I’ve been kinda busy lately and as a matter of fact I still am.
You know living between two houses – more difficult than sitting between two chairs, you should have a try believe me – can drive people crazy and this is my case I’m completely nuts. So here goes my first excuse, but I might also face the fact that my writing skills are drying and that will be a real pity, yeah I know. Awe, I will feel so sorry for you – my secret readers, my silent followers, my fans – I can easily understand how desperate and scary this possibility can be!
We all know that my posts are nothing special, don’t we? I am the first to admit that it is not simple to define my style, that my blog does not follow a structure or any guiding lines.
I am aware of that disaster and this is why I am asking myself lately “Why did you start a blog? What are your goals? Why?” Because THAT IS the question. WHY on earth do people feel the need to start blogging? Don’t ask me I have no answer! Whatever! Snooping around I have found such interesting ones about: History, Arts, Paintings, Dolls, etc… and it is also true that I found others less interesting that are really… ahemmm… let’s say inventive, surprising and unexpected… about the most unbelievable subjects.
But let’s focus on my spot again. A look at my older posts doesn’t help defining my style, no clues either about the type of blog it is… It might look weird but that’s the way it is.
As a matter of fact, the real genius inside me has not pointed out yet, though I am pretty sure that I’m gonna be a real revelation and that I am gonna make a real fuss with Nothing Special – don’t know why but the title of Shakespeare’s play “Much ado about nothing” has just crossed my mind right now, and that sounds promising – is it a kind of omen?
Anyway, right now I will not be surprised at all if the following conversation comes to my ears: “Don’t waste your time reading “Nothing Special” as the most interesting thing about it is that the blogger has made a pretty good choice with the title. NS is just so accurate as its contents are nothing else but special, just cheap chat.”
Well OK guys, you are right again, but I am not going to wallow in self-pity and you have to trust me when I say that the day will come when my blog will be for you like a drug; you are going to be real “yoladdicts”. Wow, now this sounds terrific. You are going to need me in your everyday life! As simple as that.
Though, in the meantime I still have to write thousands and thousands of words and hundreds and hundreds of posts. This is just another true statement, I agree.
You probably wonder what kind of subjects do inspire me, and up to this point I can tell you that I’m not interested in: cooking, kids, patchworks, knitting, pregnancy, motherhood… and nor in mechanics, astrology, horoscopes…
I’ll rather turn toward: literature, movies, arts, psychology, photography, music… as I am more the artistic kind. Anyway, I read somewhere that a blog needs to be attractive, that its title has to light out your curiosity, that its presentation has to make people feel comfortable and that subjects don’t matter as much as how the blogger writes the things he or she wants to says, thus talk about anything you may like but do it in a simple way, entertaining readers and making them have a good time.
So to put it shorter: flirting with people’s likings, charming them and winking at them ^_*** .
