I used to write in my diary from a very early age so blogging came very naturally to me. When I write I like to present the topic to a reader as I saw it. So if I do a movie or a game review (I do those a lot :) I would write it as if I was describing the movie or a game to a friend. I would talk about the experience of it. For instance I reviewed Dead man(http://www.staticshin.com/dead-man/ http://www.staticshin.com/dead-man/) last year and I opened the review with the following lines >William Blake( Johnny Depp) has nothing to look forward to in his home town. He is unemployed. His parents are dead. His lover has left him. He has only enough savings to pay for his fare to the machine town where he has been promised a job as an accountant. But when he arrives there he finds that the position has already been filled by some one else. It immediately told the reader what I thought of William Blake which is exactly how I would have described the movie to a friend. A constant that I have noticed in my writing is that I write well on topics that I want to write about. How do I know what I want to write? By writing. It is funny but it works every time. I have tonnes of half finished blog posts/ideas that I initially thought would be interesting but turned out commonplace. Two things that I feel are very important for writing (digitally) are 1. A good text editor. 2. A quiet place. I think it would be a good investment for any blogger to learn markdown and yet I see a lot of writers fiddling around with wsywig editors that constantly break their chain of thought. Point 2 is self explanatory, I think, since a large part of writing is thinking and if you can think clearly you will write clearly. One adivce that I absolutely hate is > write on a niche topic I don't like blogs that talk about a single topic. When I read a blog I want to know more about the writer as much as I want to know more on the topic. And I know that every individual has many different tastes so why limit yourself?
