Starting my Blog

Where to start? I love writing so much and have so many thoughts whirling around my head that I just don't know where to begin, or how to begin. 

I want a place for people to read my work and enjoy it, and also to have the potential of getting more work. 

I couldn't decide if to have a website, a blog, a facebook page, a folder full of print outs......the options are endless. 

I love my work, and I like to receive readers feedback and opinions, but I am not very good at selling myself in order to get extra work or to tell people that I am a writer.
So I finally decided I would try a blog - I am not entirely sure how it works but I see other people have blogs so why don't I?
I do realise that I am currently writing and no-one is reading this now, but they may do tomorrow or the next day or the day after that.....who knows!

Here goes nothing......!

I am feeling peaceful.....due to the quietness of my house and office, and watching the birds in the trees, to not having to be anywhere at a certain time and to being my own boss. That is a great thing, being my own boss and especially as a writer, I write when I feel like writing, when my inspiration grabs me and I feel I need to write. Freelance can b

Well, it has been quite a few days since I last wrote on my blog. I have been so busy writing new things plus typing up old things too. I have entered a few poetry competitions and have contact a few magazines to see if they would be interested in any of my work. I have also been enjoying the nice weather too - the sunshine in the UK always distracts me, as I tend to prioritise being outside in the sun and enjoying it instead of writing! - However, as I work for myself I have the option to do this. I am also feeling rather pleased with myself today as one of my recent articles published on Henpicked has been shared on their facebook page and has received lots of comments and attention  - which is exactly why I write - I like to write things that make people talk or have an opinion of. As I have been typing up some of my old work, I have been quite amazed at how good some of my old stuff was, some from when I first started writing, aged 15  - obviously I have also discovered some
