There Is Only One Reason Why You Shouldn't Blog

Blogs are popular but good ranking blogs and well-read blogs, for that matter, are only a few. Nobody can say that quality count when blogging about any particular subject or niche. However, even when visitors send your posts to StumbleUpon or promote them on Twitter, one thing is capital when we talk about content. Franklin Bishop gives you the 7 Reasons Why You Shouldn't Blog but for us, all come to a single one, the most important of all. Do not even start a blog if you are a really bad writer. Period. "You’re full of wonderful blog post ideas, but you know you are a terrible writer. Unfortunately, no matter how practical and valuable your ideas, if you cannot write coherently, you shouldn’t blog. Paying someone who can write to a blog for you is an expensive exercise. More importantly, the essence of you simply cannot be portrayed in the same manner. Bite the bullet and learn! Learning to write well will benefit many areas of your business, not just your blog."

How 'The Times' Strives to Polish Its Contents

You all know how popular and read is The Times The following extract are part of When Spell-Check Can’t Help and adapted from After Deadline, a weekly newsroom critique overseen by Philip B. Corbett, the deputy news editor who is also in charge of The Times’s style manual. Since most writers and bloggers encounter similar troubles, Cogitate thinks these observations might interest all readers, too. The goal, however, is not to chastise, but to point out recurring problems and suggest solutions. "When we stumble over sound-alike words, readers accuse us of turning our editing chores over to a computer program (and not a very sophisticated one). [...] Here’s a reminder from The Times’s style book: reason (n). Both because and why are built into the meaning of reason. So avoid the reason is because and the reason why. Write The reason is that the mayor got more votes and She found out the reason the mayor won. Usually a phrase like reason why the decision was made can be short...

Decoding Skills

Some help along the way with a short vowel, long vowel, and consonant. Thanks to Mary Kay Linge who in her Reading Tutor points: 1. When one vowel appears between two consonants, the vowel usually says its short sound. 2. If there is an e at the end of a word, the vowel sound is long and the e is not pronounced -it's silent. 3. A vowel before a doubled consonant says its short sound. 4. When two vowels appear together, we usually hear only the first vowel, and it says its long sound(or, "When two vowels go walking, the first does the talking") 5. When a word has only one vowel and it appears at the end of the word, it usually says its long sound. 6. When c or g comes immediately before a,o or u we say its hard sound. 7. When c or g comes immediately before e, i, o or y we say its soft sound. However, there are many exceptions to every one of the rules, and learning them will only come with time and reading experience. No wonder so many struggle!
