Why I Write a Blog

Yes, this is an addendum to my previous posts on why I write a blog. What has inspired me to write this addendum is a quote from the book on MA Instruction by Lawrence Kane, "Knowledge capture, the mere process of writing things down facilitates internalization and understanding of the knowledge that is written."

This quote/statement puts it in perfect perspective for me and I wanted to convey that to those who read the blog. I use the blog as a way to accomplish this plus I wanted to cement the knowledge and understanding by the type of feedback/comments/critiques readers provide. If I am able to inspire a reader to pursue more because of a post all the better, that makes me very happy.

A process and if you view my type description you would understand why this works for me. I get a lot from writing as well as doing. I see myself falling into the kinesthetic, visual, and auditory. I am not sure where the writer part fits yet but when I read my type along with fuller explanations I tend to say, Oh yea, that is me alright! Very Interesting... [question does come up, am I being open or am I just telling myself the story I want to hear; a part of self-analysis, yea]
