Overcoming Fear and Getting Indexed by Google
Never in my life did I consider blogging. I've read other bloggers material. Some great, some good, and others. As for me, never, a long time ago I had labeled myself as 'not the great writer'.
So when I was looking for an opportunity to take advantage of I discovered Wealthy Affiliate. It looked great. It sounded great and appeared to be legit. I really thought this might be what I'm looking for, except........BLOGGING! My great fear.
So I did not join for almost a month. I was searching for something else and WA kept coming up but I would not do it because I am not a skilled writer.
But something inside kept urging me and I couldn't get WA off my mind. One day I clicked the join button and said "Just do it."
Here at WA there was not pressure to be perfect and they have such an awesome learning tool. These classes they have set up guide you every step of the way. After a short amount of time I was writing and with less fear, because I learned that I don't have to be 'that great writer.'
Wealthy Affiliate also has a wonderful community within. There are so many people here who are willing to reach out and help. I want to thank all who have helped me. Just to let you know I welcome any constructive criticism, I know I need help and will gladly except it..
Anyway I am proud to say that I have been indexed by Google!! Now my next goal is to get ranked by Google. I'll just keep blogging and learning, while, hopefully improving along the way. I am going to "Just do it."

But, now you have broken through that mental barrier, so throw open the floodgates and bless the world with your insight and wit.
Congratulations on walking into writing! I have always loved to write, and now teach some very reluctant students. What I have learned is that everyone can talk. If you write how you talk, you will have an engaging style that will be natural for you. Just use the grammar and dictionary functions to check out how you are doing. I think that you will enjoy sharing your joys and passions. Don't give up! If I can help you, evens if you want some advice editing a page or two, just let me know :)

You know what is as good or better than being a "great" writer?
Being an honest writer. When your writing is sincere and comes from the heart you can hardly go wrong. So keep writing and develop your writing skills. What I've read ny you so far is terrific!
