Behind The Scenes Of Blogging

Today I thought I would share with you want goes on behind the scenes as you don't know and if I was a reader I would really enjoy this post as I like behind the scenes things. These are my secrets on how I plan, take and edit my pictures and write a post.

Planning-
I love planning so this is one point I really enjoy even though I enjoy them all. I have a blogging notebook from WHSmith which I write all of all my plans in for a post such as the concept, thumbnail and what I want to include in each post. I know some people like to do spur of the moment posts and I do occasionally (this one is) but I'm a perfectionist so I want everything to be as good as possible.

Blog Photos-
Whenever I take blog photos I always take them in bulk as I find it easier and so I have good lighting and that's important and it's most helpful in the winter months as I have school when there is good lighting and I don't have time so I like to do them in bulk, even in the spring and summer. I take my blog pictures on my Kindle Fire as I don't have a proper camera but I do want to get one, hopefully for my birthday or Christmas (but both of them are in December).
Editing-
I edit all of my pictures on Picmonkey as that is really easy to edit on. I have edited on here for ages but now my way of editing is just a colourful border as I like them all to be simple. On my old blog and early posts on here I used to have words on all posts but I then didn't like it that much so I changed it and only do text on my thumbnail which I really like as a thumbnail.
Writing-
Writing! I love writing and I can easily wack out a post quickly (today I wrote a long post in 20 minutes). However when I write I have to be in a writing mood so sometimes I put it off as if I'm not in a blogging mood I make loads of mistakes and I don't know what to write and everything is also not as good as if I was in a writing mood. I usually write in the middle of the afternoon (if I'm not at school, before I go to school or late in the evening.

So that my friends is how I make a blog post. I don't have a average length of how long it takes me to write a blog post as sometimes I don't have time so it takes me a couple of days so I do it in chunks or I'll do it in 1 day when I'm on school holiday as I have time and usually I really focus.
