Write what you loveNotice I didn’t say what you know and love? Start with the passion first and work up from there. If you’ve recently found a new passion for cooking and you want to share that passion with the world, that’s what you should write about. Chronicle your cooking adventures, add recipes and tips as you find them and in general show everyone how much you’re enjoying this. Show the downsides too. Your burnt turkey at Thanksgiving, the rotten plumbs you ended up with, whatever you encounter. To know and a love a subject is also a good recipe for success. If you’ve been around the film industry for years and you still love what you do, you’re going to have a successful (and probably very popular) blog.Define what ’successful’ means to youDo you want to be the next BoingBoing? (I wish you all the luck!) Or are you content with your family and the occasional stranger stopping by?
