Confessions of a Quasi-Novice Blogger

I confess!  I know not how to respond to a Google reply/notification!  I have trouble replying to a Facebook message!  I struggle (still) to figure out Instagram!  <LMAO>

Is it an age thang?  Or a simple lack of knowledge?  Maybe a bit of both.  I love technology, though I [often] curse it.  Social media I totally get and attempt to pursue as regularly as limited time will allow, but—another admission—some sites/applications [to me] are as nebulous as clouds of dust.

I should probably find a social media expert who works [super] cheap, someone who can explain it in layman’s—er, layperson’s—terms so it’s understandable and doable.

Another bit of a digression today.  When ideas/thoughts pop into the ol’ noggin, you sometimes yearn to share them—maybe because, when you let others in on what you’re thinking or experiencing, the process provides a bit of that warm and fuzzy feeling (and that’s kind of ni-ice).

Blogging: what an awesome platform.  It enables us to open up, confess, entertain, instruct . . . sell . . . meet and greet.  We can reveal dreams, worries, and inexperience/naiveté.  We can expose ourselves to the world, something many of us may never previously have considered, much less done.  In essence, we’re able to wear our hearts on our sleeves (and that’s kind of ni-ice, too). 

Departures from the norm are a good thing now and again.  But next post, it’s back to the straight and narrow.  . . . Maybe.  Who knows what may catch my fancy the next few days?  <ROTFL>

Thanks for letting me in, my friends.

I'm primarily a writer of fiction and blog posts, and a sometimes editor and proofreader of books, manuals, and film/television scripts. Fact-checking and researching, organizing and coordinating are skills and joys (I enjoy playing detective and developing structure). My fiction audience: lovers of female-sleuth mysteries. My genres of preference: mysteries (needless to say), women’s fiction, informative and helpful “affirmative” non-fiction. So-o, here I am, staring up a new blog for aspiring and established e-Book writers. The plan: to share the (long) journey of getting to this stage, and share "learnings" and "teachings". There's a lot I hope to accomplish with this blog, but it may be a while before that happens as there's a lot on the ol' plate - taking care of Mom, working full-time, and attempting to get another book in the Triple Threat Investigation Agency series written (never mind blog postings and other writing projects). It's very challenging and it's all good. As I like to say: teeny focused baby steps are just as effective as long forceful strides. It may take a little longer, but we will get there.
