Day One: Elevator Pitch

Hello readers,

Today marks day one of the 31 Days to Build a Better Blog challenge; that means we are talking about my elevator pitch. If you want to know all about elevator pitches and how you should think about creating one of your own, then I highly recommend that you read the post Writing An Elevator Pitch for Your Blog on StoryDam.com. Now onto my brainstorming and attempt.

My Passion: Life isn't much, but school. I'm a sensitive person and I'm always observing. I feel in love with poetry and decided to start a blog to share my original pieces.

My Audience: For a while and I still do think my readers are my sisters in faith and humanity, yet it's also becoming for fellow writers.

What I Do Here: I share a few to a lot of poems through out each month. Once a week I share my blessings and later ramble about one of them or something else that stuck out to me that certain week.

My Blog's Elevator Pitch: My blog is filled with blessings, faith and poetry about any or everything.

Am I Missing Anything? Let me know in the comments section below!

Thank you and love,

"Blessings, faith and poetry" - I love that. That seems to mesh so well together and have me feeling like I am visiting a peaceful and melodic place.

Very nice job Fida!

Hearing About IWSG

Hello readers, I was reading Ali's post about this support group that talks about writerly doubts. I have doubts and I shall share them because that's the point of a support group. I used to be insecure about traditional publishing, that no one with accept my writing. Then I heard of self publishing. Yet that added to my insecurities. I have no money or talent to showcase my writing. After IndieReCon I felt a better, yet once the high went away, I find it's only a little bit better. I need a team, I need help. I call for help, but I don't get replies. That's another insecurity, I don't think I have any fans. My blog is becoming dead and I keep thinking of deactivating my twitter. The only reason I stay is for the knowledge. And the worse insecurity, dare I say it. All the above add to me... wanting to quit writing. I have little motivation and that motivation is to show my Muslim community you don't have to be a doctor or lawyer or teacher to be...
