Tell Me Why

Why do you blog?

• To sharpen writing skills?
• To meet other writers or bloggers?
• To spread the word about your work?
• To give back to the writing (or other) community?

I started blogging in 2009 to add "blogging" to my resume. Little did I know what was in store - I met wonderful people (you!) and practiced and learned all of the above and more. It's been a great experience.

If I had to choose the greatest benefit, I'd say it's the people. Meeting people with varied talents and interests from all over the globe is priceless.

So tell me, what motivates you to blog?
