Blogs...Does Anyone Blog? [View all]

I have finished my first novel, a sci-fi murder mystery, and am feverishly working on the %$# query letter. All the information regarding publishing tells me I need a blog in addition to being on social media. (I recently opened a Facebook account after resisting for years and the first person to contact me was my ex-husband… that was fun.) I would like to know if any of you have a blog, had a blog, or ran screaming instead of creating one.

I am conflicted on content… while I love science fiction, not all of my writing is sci-fi, and I don’t want to restrict myself. I keep thinking I’d like to do a blog that chronicles my journey from dreaming about writing a novel to accomplishing it. Maybe, my story along with others might prompt someone to write for themselves.

If anyone has some advice, I would appreciate it. Also, I am considering WordPress as a platform but if anyone has a better suggestion, I would appreciate it.

Thanks!!!
