The globe has become much smaller and friendlier because of blogs. The internet stills fills me with awe in a way I don't think those who've grown up with it can ever understand. I love my blogging friends and, of course, especially you Denise! I'm amazed and thrilled that we've read each other's blogs from different parts of the country, then by chance, met in a writing workshop, and now meet in our writers group every week. How awesome is that?!<br /><br />I also laugh at the 'experts' who have opinions on who is allowed to blog and who isn't. The same type of people that complain about 'amateurs' reviewing books/films/food. Just the other day, on the radio, I heard chefs complain that customers shouldn't be able photograph their meal and put it on instagram. Why? Because they're not professional photographers and the meal may not show in the best light. What??? If I pay for a meal, the food is mine and I eat it, photograph it, or wear it as a hat if I want. Some people get too precious about their art and I think that's where the selective entrance to the 'blogging club' comes from. I love reading the journey of new writers becoming new authors. <br /><br />And your blog is looking great now!Charmaine Clancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18059559142070140041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7362528912516506170.post-89119950985545397842013-01-30T04:52:59.679+10:002013-01-30T04:52:59.679+10:00Nice to remeet you!

I think it allows for a greater depth of connection. Would a night out with friends for drinks and setting the world to rights be considered a waste of time?<br /><br />Definitely intrigued about Jessica's book!

Realistically, if you write a bestseller you get a platform handed to you. But for those of us who are trying to get by til then, blogging is an amazing source of friendship, support, and networking that has proven to be invaluable to me. So so glad I take the time to do it, and truly, there's a force here on the web that can't be denied.PK HREZOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11650153097981426833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7362528912516506170.post-87390592650045406792013-01-29T23:26:44.234+10:002013-01-29T23:26:44.234+10:00Great to re-meet you Denise.

As for why I blog? Well, it started out because of something I kept hearing: 'You're a writer and so you need to blog'. Stupid reason IMO, but I dipped my toes in anyway.<br /><br />I can't say I've actually found my feet in the blogging world yet, but I can say that it's been very rewarding - with most of that reward coming not from the stuff I've been posting, but actually meeting so many incredible and supportive people.<br /><br />I wish I'd discovered that a few years ago.
