I feel like writing so why not write something constructive and beneficial based on personal experience?

Not long ago somebody asked me to write a blog about “How one should start blogging and for tips and tricks to maintain it”.

So there are two things:

  1. I love it when people demand for what they want to read and what they want me to write on. However, I try my best to fulfill the demands.

  2. It keeps pushing me forward while motivating me to brush off negativity, of a few, off of me.

Before I write a detailed blog on how one should start blogging (very soon insha Allah) maybe it’s MORE important of a matter to know “WHY” you should read to become a good writer hence a good blogger too.

So I started pushing myself into reading back in 8th grade like I repeatedly said in my previous posts. Frankly speaking I wasn’t convinced by this habit before 8th standard, though I was forced to do so by my mother but I hated it to be precise. WHY I started it? becuz I was inspired. I was inspired by how my seniors could speak English so fluently, how could they write longass essays in no time. How are they so better and why I am so dumb lel. These repeated questions basically pushed me into reading. Then I started realizing that probably they read? Because that’s what my mother tells me almost every day. So, ever since I started borrowing books from my school library and dived into the world of reading. Have you ever heard of the phrase “Once a reader, always a reader”? That was my thing. I believe once you start reading, you get addicted. Even if you want to you can’t just quit it that’s how strong the connection is with the book, no exaggerating.

Okay this is very interesting though, when I read, more than I visualize the story in the back of my mind I focus more on how sentence is structured with exactly what word plus, how grammatical forms are fixed with each vocab. What I mean is, I notice more on the “Usage” of vocabulary rather than learning a heavy and fancy word that makes one look cool and intelligent at the same time. And that is right in some ways I guess, it is not necessary for a writer to LOOK like a writer by using heaving cool-looking-words, rather simple and easy-to-understand words reach more audience and is impactful than the latter category. Also, talking from experience if you see yourself making some money through writing, you should definitely pick up the thread of not making these blunders.

However, it is not compulsory for a blogger to be a born writer who has hardcore writing skills but if you really want to engage your followers and shift the audience from one of the top readers’ blog site existing, towards YOUR blog and spread your readership then you have to write captivating captions, my son. For the very reason “READ”. I literally urge almost everyone to start reading if you don’t already because that’s how you would design your blog, style your text with good sentences and this is exactly how you will attract and hold attention of many. Cheers!
