Once in a while, I get tagged on a meme I find very useful for my blog. This one for instance, is all about blogging tips. Erisha and Morgan tagged me with this meme. Thanks ladies and I'm so sorry it took me ages to get it up!

33. When you’re trying to think of a new great post, or deep in thought on how to make it better, just remember - trying is crap. Trying to think is worthless. Thinking is the greatest single hindrance to a writer. Relax, don’t try to think. Let go of your thought and ego. Only then is real thought able to naturally flow on it’s own, without being consciously driven. Just a little something not to think about:) http://revellian.com/
