There are a number of videos on youtube which introduce one to blogging. Some of the better blogs are on my pages...Peter Olson's photography blog is one of the most informative and unusual blogs that I have seen and I like it a lot. He focuses on Paris but he also has a Where Am I group as well. Peter is a guide in Paris as well as blogger so that if one is very lucky, one might be able to find him to escort a newbie around the City of Lights.
I am considering blogging a novel since my pal Melanie Clegg has advised it. It may actually be a means of finding an agent and editor so that one could have it turned into a book as google ads have often asked if I want to turn my blog into a book. Why not write the book on a blogsite and then have it converted into a marketable book? I am contemplating that at this moment, having studied a few of the blogs that I follow.
I found another blog from a fellow Alexanderphile, Ruth Kozak and I posted one of her blogs on facebook. I hope that she did not mind my doing that with her story about the Greeks taking umbrage at a magazine making sport of the goddess Athena.
I found the story rather amusing and the Greek's reaction just as amusing. One must not make fun of Greek gods and goddesses even today. I actually respect that a lot and do admire the Greeks who were smart enough to defend an ancient belief.
I will probably post this at facebook too just to explain my position.
