This Blog Is Nowhere Near Ready To Launch
It’s not. I’ve spent weeks agonising over what to blog about, what the focus is, and have managed to so thoroughly tie myself up in knots that nothing has been written.
So I’ve decided. I’m blogging about what I’m learning and how to get there. This way no-one expects pearls of wisdom to leap from the pages, or rather I don’t expect that of myself.
I work in publishing, educational and health publishing and this is my personal blog about what I’m learning.
First step – wordpress blog. Well, I’ve started herewith. Next Pictures, I need more pictures, and things down the side, and a banner picture, and a proper blog title….
Thanks to all who have helped so far (don’t go anywhere):
@sandnsurf am getting there… @marksmithers – online helpdesk @neerav – costing a fortune in pizzas and @BitetheDust for saying the blog title was pants (what was wrong with Dreamingspires on Line?)
Blog design at time of writing: blue, three column, Garland theme
Good luck with your new blog Heidi!
I’m sure you won’t need it. You have so many valuable things to say.

Launching a blog seems similar to having a baby – if you wait until you think you’re completely ready, it may never happen. Congratulations on the birth – you done good.

All the best. once you get over the first hurdle of what to write about, it’s much easier.

You’re already one step closer to emulating Google’s business success – they always launch products in Beta before all the coding is finished

Well done – you’ve gone from no blog to a blog – I know the feeling. The best thing about blogs is the informal nature of them that allows us to ‘perfect in public’ rather than in private. Openness and collaboration – it’s the Web 2.0 way…
