Blue Skelton’s Blogging School

Hello and welcome to Blue Skelton’s School of Blogging. I know that this blog is primarily focused on Film, but I wanted to share with all of you what has made me so successful. This is a step by step guide on how to be successful blogging. I am not going to BS you with flowery language and false hopes either.

In my School for Blogging, I am going to tell it to you straight. Steve Pavlina says that 99/100 blogs will fail but I would guess that it is more like 999/1000. The truth is that blogging is a lot of fun. If you want to make a living blogging however, it is extremely hard work. Your changes of making it blogging are about as good as Columbus’s were of discovering the new world. And its about as easy as the contortionist stunt featured in my School Graphic Above.

"Blogging is a lot like contortionism actually. You have to bend yourself in painful ways to conform to a mold that will lead you to success. And as fun and fulfilling as a successful blogging career can be it is very painful getting there and it requires a lot of flexibility. So stretch your muscles and post often and most importantly pay attention to everything.

With my Blogging School, I cannot promise you success. All I can promise you is this: I will teach you everything that has made me successful as a blogger."
