TOPIC CHAT

Pro-Blog or Anti-Blog? Do Writers Need Them?

Recently I posted a series of surveys and I was interested to see that only one in four writers has a blog.   

Should we blog or should we keep our words to ourselves and maybe let social media do our heavy lifting? 

This topic has two links, I will cover them both during the chat.  Be prepared to share your ideas pro-blog or anti-blog.
