Voice

When I’m not a marketer, I’m a writer.  If for a moment I forget modesty, I think I’m a pretty good writer, for an unpublished one, and one of my best skills is my writing voice.

But I confess, I’m having a hard time finding my voice here.  I think I’m trying too hard to not be me - which is intensely personal, even when that’s not such a good idea.

It’s a hard happy medium to find, because I want this to be a place I can advertise professionally without embarassing myself.

I read something today - I’ll have to hunt to find it because I’m not sure I starred it, and to be honest, it was something I’ve read before with different themes on various sites - that if you write about something you love, you’ll get an audience.

Since I feel a bit stiff, here, that means I’m not hitting the right happy medium of writing what pleases me so that it can please others.
