Communication

Communication. Online. Whatever happened to the face-to-face stuff? This world of blogging has invaded my space and so I give in. I'm a writer; creating a website; working on the manuscript; hence the blog. Hey, it's another place to write; to vent; to work through the thoughts and perhaps someone else shares those thoughts. I'm refreshed by more chances to actually write but wonder about the communication thing.
Face-to-face means more than the words; there's the body language, the eye movement, the hand gestures that say even more than the words. Now its time for the words to speak for themselves.
Speak.

I agree with you about the face-to-face stuff, but this seems to be the direction things are going in. Change is the only constant and we've either gotta get on board or be left behind. Welcome to the world of blogging!

See, it's not so hard!

Get yourself some pictures, and some wacky links, and you are on your way!

Writing in this medium makes the writer more aware of the body language and emotion - "show, don't tell" writing - the same type of writing you have to do for your book's readers.

And you're right, Lisa, you're exercising your writing muscle.

Keep going - you'll find it's fun.

Hi lisa i see what you mean, although everyone is different to some one on one means more... to others words on paper mean more it's just one of those things.. i agree with you though when i am face to face with my brother it means more than just reading his emails when he is away
