What type of blog should you write?

You are a powerhouse of prose and inspiring extraordinaire with a gift for gripping readers with your musings about everyday life.

Sylvia Plath said, "Let me live, love, and say it well in good sentences."

You’re masterful in the art of turning the ordinary into stories that your readers don’t want to end.

It’s time to make your personal essays resonate with your audience!

You’ve learned through hard work, trial and error. Don’t underestimate the storehouse of gems that have come from your journey.

Examples of successful personal blogs:

Southern Curls and Pearls

Love That Max

Tech Savvy Mama

"Read, read, read. Read everything -- trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You'll absorb it. Then write. If it's good, you'll find out. If it's not, throw it out of the window."

— William Faulkner

We all have those dreaded stretches of time where it feels like the writing well is dry — going back in your journals can get your ideas popping like corn… Hurry, get out the bowl and butter!!!

🖋️ Welcome Wordsmith 📜

There’s no such thing as writer’s block when you’ve got Mari on your team!

If a natural born artist and a nerdy scientist had a baby you’d be their love-child. You have the ‘it’ qualities to write and edit dazzling content: passion and a hunger for research in a specific area.

You’re intuitive enough to interpret the big picture of a specific topic, then decipher and edit it into concise, engaging content.

You tend to want to be behind the scenes and are known to emerge after long hours at your computer. Tip: set an alarm to remind yourself to get up and stretch.

Let’s face it, friend, there’s a lot of competition out there. Niching down tight is a great way to get noticed!

Examples of successful niche blogs:

“Really good content is unsurpassed at building rapport, delivering a sales message without feeling “salesy,” and getting potential customers to stick around.”

There’s no such thing as writer’s block when you’ve got Mari on your team!

You appreciate the fast paced, ever changing, wild world of daily news. Politics meets human interest meets controversy is your jam!

You don’t shy away from intensity and drama — in fact — you run into it like a fire fighter into a burning building! Where there’s a story worth telling you’ll find a way to get there and spin it into news.

You have a passion about a particular area of the news and tireless energy to research the nuances of it. The world needs your viewpoint, my friend. Where would we be without the Carl Bernsteins, Bob Woodwards, or the Katie Courics of reporting? We’d be in the dark, that’s where.

So, get your voice out into the light!

Examples of successful news blogs:

Huffpost

Mashable

The Daily Beast

"Would you like me to give you a formula for success? It's quite simple, really: Double your rate of failure. You are thinking of failure as the enemy of success. But it isn't at all. You can be discouraged by failure or you can lean from it, so go ahead and make mistakes. Make all you can. Because remember that's where you will find success."

— Thomas J. Watson
