revamping the blog

Today's post is a restart for my blog. When I started this blog, I honestly wasn't quite sure what to do. I had seen from articles for being a self-published author that blogging was a good way to connect with readers, but there were really no good details for how to go about it. Recently, I came across a guide for authors on how to blog. I know some might think that's a bit silly, but if you've never done something before, you really need a guide. Anyway, so now that I know I've been falling short, now I can do better.  I had no idea that there was so many steps or guidelines to blogging. I just assumed, wrongly, that you just posted whatever was on your mind. 

So, for a new start my blog will focus on the different aspects of my journey as an author. Book reviews, book research, author updates, and really anything related to mysteries or solving crimes -- You will find information or my personal opinion on any of the above topics.  I will try to post twice a week, but sometimes that's difficult when I have book project deadlines staring me down. I have to admit that I have enjoyed writing this blog and I wasn't sure that I would when I first started. It's kind of grown on me - a way to clear some space in my head by getting these things down.
​
I don't know if anybody will see this blog or not -- I only want to share my thoughts. So, if it's just me and this screen or if others come along, either way, this is just another opportunity for me to write and that is good enough for me. 
Until next time...
