Need opinions.

Only a small minority of blogs are interesting to read and read by more than a few. Sometimes it’s because the writer lives a very interesting life or is willing to talk about aspects of life people usually don’t, like their sex life. But for others it is the wit and entertainment of the writing style that makes the blog entertaining.

writing to get a better understanding of oneself is a great idea. But don’t be disappointed if no one reads it unless your subject matter is very exciting or you’re a very talented writer.

I had similar thoughts, but we aren't likely her target audience, as I certainly need no additional awareness of my day-to-day life. For those whose frame of reference hangs solely on a neurotypical nail, any additional education they receive without asking me is certainly appreciated.

Your observations about blogs match mine. There are only a few blogs I subscribe to: Sisters in Crime, and Jane Friedman--- both are blogs for writers. Some of the blogs I have visited looked like the blogger had never written a complete sentence for. :-)

I shall think about this :)
