It’s great knowing that folk are actually interested in reading the random scribblings that make up your blog but I find that it comes with a worrying sense of responsibility. All of a sudden I feel like I am writing for an audience and have to consider what it is “they” want to read. All the more concerning when you know that your most regular audience comprises your mum and your dad.
Anyhow, I am pleased to announce that my dad has now started his very own blog, so I can now check up on him on a regular basis too. So far he is writing about the characters he comes across on his allotment and has already educated me on the reason why Pythagoras avoided Fava beans. Check him out at The Nearly Good Life.

I know exactly what you mean about having an audience – it can be a little concerning at times to think people are actually going to read what you write. Too cool about your dad and his blog!
Writing for an audience is always something to consider for any blogger. Should I really admit to that? Do they care? Am I boring? I’ve found that my favorite blogs are the honest ones, people who don’t skimp on the details for fear of their audience. Be yourself and you will find an audience!
