The Pretentious Blogging Meme


...another meme from Sunday Stealing!

Glad to make it just in time! :) So here goes my entry --

1. How long have you been blogging? 

Well I started blogging November of 2005, so that makes it 4 years and about 2 months!

2. What made you start? 

I just wanted to write...I wanted to write about what and how I feel, what I think and just about anything.
3. Who inspired you? 

I've been wanting to write ever since, but I have to admit there were several blogs which inspired to finally create my own blog. I believe I did mention about them in the past, unfortunately though some of them have stopped blogging already.

4. About how many hours a week would you estimate you spend on your blog? 

Blogging is not just about writing a post, that will not take so much time, I guess an hour a day is already good for that. But then blogging for me is about visiting other people and learning something about them, so that takes time. I usually spend more hours during weekend to make sure I get to visit others. So I guess that gives me 20-24 hours a week?

5. What kind of experience or background do you have with writing? 

I write as a hobby. I did the paper for the youth council. I was also active in our school paper.

6. Talk about how you come up with blog topics. Where do you get your ideas? 

I join daily memes so that covers certain topics to post about specially in times when my mind goes blank. I also have my own Tech Tuesday and Tuesday's Tales which are more than enough to occupy my Tuesday. 

I write random stuff, I really don't sweat it out. I just write about anything I want, from what makes me smile to what really pisses me off! LOL

7. What or who inspires you and your blog? 

This is a personal blog so I'd say people around me inspires almost all my writings here.

8. Where and/or how do your brainstorming for your blog?

As I said I write random stuff and sometimes out of those random topics I get my inspirations to write something more serious on related topics. Sometimes the IT Guy too do get to suggest some topics to write about. I am also blessed to have really close friends who sometimes just call me up and tell me to write some topics.

9. Do you have any blogging rules or guidelines you follow? 

This is a personal blog so I get to write anything I'm comfortable talking about myself. That's it, it's all about me and if ever I get to mention people in my blog I have to ask for their permission and I try not to talk much about them. For people that annoys me, well I don't name names of course! LOL

10. Is there anything you will not blog about? 

I think all writers know that they just can't write about anything. Everything has some limits. I don't write too personal stuff which readers may not have anything to do about. I also try not to write on some topics which are too serious.

11. Do you have any sort of a publishing schedule in terms of day of week or topic? 

Well, I have some daily memes which I do other than the random stuff which I write every now and then.
So that's it, I wish you all a super kickass Sunday!
