Do I look bad in this?

I’ve been reading that your website (as an author) should be geared toward your reader.  I don’t have readers, I am unpublished.  When (if) I do, believe me, there will be a front page with a ginormous pic of my cover.  But, getting far ahead of myself, I have nothing to offer a reader.  I’m figuring it out as I go, but I can’t imagine a way to make this site for readers.

I had two reasons for creating this site.  One was to document my journey in becoming a writer.  It’s my passion, writing, and I love talking (or writing) about it.  I realize there’s a lot of whiny posts on this site, particularly early on, but I sort of had to slip into writing about writing, like getting into a pool that’s not quite warm enough.

The second reason was that… it’s writing.  It’s not fiction, but writing is writing.  I mean, if you want to be an Olympic swimmer, sure you need to go to the pool every day, but taking a dip in the pond by your house can’t be a bad thing, right?  It’s practice, it’s developing my voice, it’s developing my ability to structure my ideas and present them.  It’s directed journaling online.

So, I guess what I’m wondering is if I ever finish that synopsis and send it out, and an agent sees my website on my query letter, and takes a peek… does this blog make me look bad?

No answers on this front.  But I’ve probably got time to figure it out.

  1. Thanks for the concepts you are revealing on this blog. Another thing I’d prefer to say is the fact that getting hold of duplicates of your credit report in order to check out accuracy of each and every detail is one first activity you have to undertake in repairing credit. You are looking to clean up your credit profile from destructive details flaws that spoil your credit score.
