Arieanna and I talked about this before. How do you get better at blogging? How do you improve your writing, besides just writing? Reading. I've said it I don't know how many times, but recently I haven't been following my own advice.
Usually I am a voracious reader; tearing through 3-4 novels in a week is not unheard of. But recently
I've let my blogging get in the way of my reading, and I think my blogging suffered. It was harder to write, harder to find the right words, harder to build an idea, harder to find the right turn of phrase. Now, since Harry Potter came out, I've been reading more, not to my previous levels, but more. Miraculously, my blogging has become much easier. Good thing too, since I wanted to live-blog BBS05!
So straight from me. Read. Books, magazines, whatever. Read to tune your own writing voice. It will help you, I promise.
