Write a script for a late-night infomercial
— where the product is your blog. How do you market yourself? What qualities do
you embody that other “products” don’t? What are the benefits of reading your
blog?
So, this is
the part of being an aspiring writer that I am not so fond of and/or very good
at. I don’t like to “market” myself or
my writing. I understand the importance
of it, but it makes me feel funny. In
the spirit of doing my best to complete this prompt, I’ll try. So, if I had to write something about my blog
to market it, it might go something like this:
From Atolls
to Apples is written in the style of a personal journal. The author is very
straightforward and clear about her purpose for writing being a cathartic
experience for her. Reading it may
provide you with a chance to relate to the author or possibly even encourage
you to look more closely at your own life experiences and how you might learn
from them. Bottom line, the author of
this blog is not trying to persuade you to change your mind about anything or
convince you to buy into a product or idea, she is simply interested in sharing
her life with you and hopes that you will find her writing fascinating and
possibly even insightful now and again.
