What did your first blog start out to be about? Did it have a plot and plan?
What is is now?
Did your blog take off in a new direction from your intention when you started blogging? Where did you start, and where did you dawdle along the way, and where have you ended up with your blogging?
Your blog challenge this week is:
Blog about the path your blog took to get to now.
As usual, blog about it on your blog with a trackback here, or if you don’t have a blog or it’s inappropriate on your blog, you can share your blogging path here in the comments.
This is one of many blogging challenges I offer weekly to help kick your blogging ass. For more challenges, see the Blog Challenge category.
