Beginner’s Mind
Beth Barany, Co-Founder, Breakfast Blogging Club, & PJ Hulle, BBC member
Beth Barany here…
I was recently reminded of being a beginner again when I started tutoring elementary school kids. At eight or nine years old, most everything you learn is for the first time. When the kids delight in using “Obama” in a Hangman spelling game, or express glee at a rearrange-the-letter phonics exercise, their wonder is contagious.

In addition to answering your questions, they will share tips and writing exercises that will help you to define your target audience, make time to write, tailor your writing to a blogging format, and more.
If we’re lucky, they may even share the Breakfast Blogging Club’s secret handshake.

Story Telling in Your Blog Posts
Cheryl and I (Beth Barany) had a wonderful Breakfast Blogging Club workshop last week in Oakland. Our topic of the day was how to write a success story. To a full house of entrepreneurs, we covered how to tell a compelling story in approximately 500 words, then covered how to create links in your post.
