The next stage

Now you've all mastered the general process of:

• logging in to Blogger


• writing in your own blog


• commenting on other blogs


• linking to other people's blog posts (or to other web pages)

I hope you've also got used to the idea of blogging from time to time when you have access to a computer. By now, I hope that writing on 3 or 4 days a week doesn't seem so hard to you.

But, if you find it difficult to write something in 15 minutes, regular blogging may be very difficult. So, today let's practice quick writing. This involves using paper and pen or pencil, and timing yourself. Remember that everything you post on your blog can be changed so don't worry if it's no good.

There are a couple of important rules for this practice:

• Don't use the delete key or the left arrow key


• Do any preparation (e.g. dictionary work) before you start writing. After starting, don't stop until your time is up.
