You have to crawl before you walk...or how I'm learning the art of the blog!

Babies must crawl before they walk. I never really thought that much about it until recently. There is a reason babies crawl. When they crawl they learn body control and the mechanics of motion. They learn to judge distance and speed. Crawling allows babies to explore their worlds from a safe position...low to the ground...where a tumble won't hurt so much. So yes...we all must crawl before walking.




This brings me to the point of my blog today. When I first started blogging I hit the ground running! I was "gung ho" to get started. I dived right in...and inevitably I made mistakes. Thankfully I had a mentor who steered me in the right direction. Blogging can be a powerful tool. The ability to reach millions of people from the comfort of my keyboard is amazing to me. I know that along with the nuts and bolts of blogging and web publishing comes a culture of sorts. There are regulations to follow. Internet etiquette should be observed to keep the blogging industry wholesome and above reproach.





So yes...there is a lot to learn about blogging. I'm just scratching the surface...so I don't mind crawling before I walk...Stay Tuned!
