I started writing very late in my life, mostly strange parodies that went absolutely nowhere.<br /><br />I really didn't get into the swing of things with my writing until I started blogging in 2008, and like you, I've met a lot of interesting people over the years (like yourself) because of it.G.

When we went to visit she expected to see the diary and make sure we were writing on a regular basis. It was really important to her. My voice has just grown up with me thanks to her. She died before the advent of the internet, but I'm sure she'd love the idea of blogs. Actually I love the idea of blogs. I have met people from all over the world because of it.

I must check out your books and other blogs a bit more! ☺ As a child, I wrote dark, dramatic plays and short stories. Now, I mostly write memoirs, reality-based fiction, travelogues and a smattering of silly poetry.

I'm curious though, if your songwriting voice is the same as your normal writing voice, or are they completely different.<br /><br />Bearman: A manly soprano, eh?G. B.

I'd never thought of voice in writing before which I suppose tells me that everyone I've been reading have been so good at what they do that you don't notice the voice ... like you don't notice someone acting if they're totally convincing. Well done y'all .... But I've never thought about my own writing voice either - it tends to be careful - avoiding contention at all costs until sometimes when I'm tired that side of me escapes and I've hit the send button without editing - perhaps that's the real voice lol<br />Thanks for this post GB - I'll be paying attention in future. <br />Fil <br /><a href="http://fil-campbell.blogspot.co.uk" rel="nofollow"> Fil’s Place - Old songs and Memories</a><br />Filhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09027496923235464642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8345361078388854353.post-68537773487030870332014-05-21T06:37:50.914-04:002014-05-21T06:37:50.914-04:00Lynn: A sense of humor is good.

Blogging is a little all over the place (as you're no doubt aware) but my e-mails tend to fall on the snarky snide as of late, which sometimes can be a bad thing.G. B.

I like to keep a sense of humor, so I hope that comes across.
