The thing you have to be careful about when you do allow others to view your writing is be prepared to be critiqued. You still have to be professional to some extent. The sad part is, if you even make a single mistake it's going to be noticed by someone. You just have to be prepared to deal with it. It comes with the territory.
I have recently started following Angelea, Chris, and Garrett's blogs. They are all very unique in different ways. Angelea is pursuing her photography skills, which I can attest to being incredible. Chris is doing something he loves to do, which is doing movie reviews. As for Garrett, he is blogging about a career he wishes to pursue in graphic design.
The tags that I have used for my following posts are pretty generic. They usually are the focus of the topic I am writing about.
I am going to have to start off by agreeing with Jason that social media does allow people from all over the world the capability of viewing your material. This will give you all sorts of different perspectives from your viewers which will help you with your writing style and structure.
ReplyDeleteThe one comment that I want to focus on is the entire second paragraph about people critiquing your work. This whole paragraph is definitely something that I have had to warm up to in the past couple years. I am a sensitive type of guy when my work is being critiqued. Although I know people are only trying to help me out, it is still upsetting to see the number of mistakes I can make in a piece. This critiquing does "come with the territory" and I feel that everyone will get used to it as they build experience in this type of field.
