Hi TEAM,
In U6 we explore writing styles, both for digital tools and in general.
I thought I would mention a good resource that specifically discusses writing for a blog and developing a writing style for it.
It is part of the “Dummies” series (I learned a lot reading “Golfing for Dummies”), this one in particular is about “Writing a Good Blog”.
Some of its major points about writing a blog were:
• remember that a blog is a conversation
• write your blog with a specific friend or family member in mind (we’ve already spent time discussing and defining out targets)
• consider your audience
• spend some time visiting other blogs that are like the one you're thinking of starting (before you start blogging)
There is lots more information and advice in this great short article that I believe you all will find helpful as you develop your blogs for this class.
Link to it at:

I hope this extra resource expands your thinking on this topic. I look forward to reading your thoughts and ideas on writing styles and to our ever growing knowledge exchange on tools for the digital age.
Do contact me with any questions. Remember…I’m here to help you succeed…and only an email away.
GO TEAM!
James.
