Normally we choose New Year's Resolutions for ourselves. They're often incredibly personal things. As we come to the end of 2013 I'm sure you're all probably thinking of things you'd like to achieve in 2014 but may I suggest one simple thing you should do in 2014?Start a blog.
2013, for me, was the year I started blogging and I've been so overwhelmed with the success of this humble blog. I don't write for money, I write because I want to write. I write because I want to exercise my mind and keep writing each day so that, even if I'm not inspired enough to write a novel, I'm still creating things. This past year I've seen my blog accessed all over the world and tweeted/read/shared by celebrities like Carice Van Houten from Game of Thrones, Dan Bucatinsky from Scandal and Natalia Tena from the Harry Potter films as well as many more wonderful people. I'm now a blogger for The Huffington Post. I vow to continue writing here as long as my readers and I enjoy it. Writing a blog provides a wonderful place to dump thoughts, feelings and energy. It gives you a place to raise your voice and share your opinions with other like-minded folk. I suggest trying it, even if you create one blog post a month, and just see how you take to it. It's a great way to vent, to share, to create and to explore.
If you create a blog then please tweet me and tell me about it!
