In Search of Blogging Mojo

Posted on by

You’ll notice that I haven’t posted anything for months now. Once again, I’ve let my blog grow stale on the vine. I’ve had so many starts and stops over the years. I’ve let what little momentum I had fall apart faster than a celebrity marriage. I need help.

31 Days to Finding Your Blogging Mojo

This week I’ve had the chance to review Bryan Allain‘s 31 Days to Finding Your Blogging Mojo. This new book looks like the help I need to get this blog back on track.

Can you turn a blog around in 31 days following Allain’s advice? Yes. Will your blog be acquired by HuffPo next month, not likely. Don’t blame the book if Arianna (or the Aggies) isn’t interested in your Baylor Bears football blog.

In 31 days you will focus on 3 core elements — audience, perspective and content. Each day has a short lesson and a Mojo action task designed to get you moving in the right direction. Here is the daily Mojo action for Day 3:

Pretend someone just asked you what your blog was about. Grab your notebook and write down your answer. Don’t over think it. Try to write down exactly what you’d say to them in conversation. And don’t worry if it sucks, we’re about to make major improvements.

You can see a bit of Allain’s wit and writing style there. I am really enjoying how each day’s lesson ends with a bit of humor form his blog archives.

Do you blog? Do you like to laugh? For less than the price of a WhataMeal ($4.99 in the Amazon Kindle Store), grab a copy of 31 Days to Finding Your Blogging Mojo and join me in quest. I can’t wait to see this blog come late October.

FTC required disclosure, I received a review PDF copy of this book from Bryan Allain.
