"The role of a writer is not to say what we all can say, but what we are unable to say.  "- Anaïs Nin

   If one were to start writing a blog, what would they need to make their blog not only stand out, but memorable? A successful blog needs to first catch ones eye; one could go about this by adding a quote, a picture, or colorful theme, much like seen in Michelle's blog. Another aspect of a blog that make it's better from others is the language used. If a blog flows well, and the language is not only creative, but eloquent, it leads the reader to not only enjoy the blog more, but also allows for the reader to understand the blog, and can leave them to have the desire to revisit that particular blog. I personally enjoy the language of Oscar's blog. I feel that he writes not only well, but in a style that I find entertaining. When writing a blog, a blog must be comprehendible. It cannot be a jumble of thoughts, which jump from one matter to another. This will leave a reader not only confused, but not wanting to return to that blog. A good blog must include a formal introduction, body, and conclusion. I feel that a all of the blogs that I have read, and enjoyed, have had this format, see ksullivan's blog. In my own opinion, the blogs I like best are blogs that emote a particular feeling, emotion, and/or expression. Writing is an outlet for some, and like I have said in a previous blog, is something that is truly freeing. A truly good blog, is a blog that leaves the reader thinker; thinking about either the subject, or an experience, or whatever may have you. A memorable blog, is a successful blog.
