It’s interesting to hear from other bloggers as to why they started to blog. There are many reasons why someone may start to blog. Would you like to learn some reasons as to why some people start to blog?

First I’ll share why I started to blog, and then give you a chance to read why someone else started to blog! Just as we are all unique individuals, the reasons someone starts to blog really vary, and then there are also the more common reasons.

I learned about blogging sometime in 2004 and became more interested in it as I learned more. Then the unthinkable happened. In the fall of 2005 I did just that! Down our stairway I went, but without using the steps! To make a long story short my fall resulted in a bad landing, which in turn resulted in a broken writing wrist, which equaled surgery! In that my career required the ability to write hand written documents, I was literally out of commission! Although I began to train myself to write with my other hand, that is a long process to go through as well. So, I started to blog.

Keyboarding as you heal from a broken wrist is far easier than writing by hand, and I didn’t have any other income options so the possibility to earn some extra cash from blogging was also appealing. So now you know my story as to why I began to blog!

Now here’s a story from one of our blogging community members Jimi, so you can read why Jimi started to blog!

Happy blogging!
