Slangified Country Bumpkins
If you've ever happened upon one of my blogs, then you most likely already know that I love to type as if I were a bonefied country bumpkin from the backwoods. Maybe I've adopted the airs of an English lady within my mind as I type or a southern accent that drawls everythin' out slow. Take into account the fact that if I wrote as I sometimes speak in real life, and you would hardly have any "g's" on the end of "ing" words. Sad but true I'm afraid.
However, I'd like to think that these simple changes in dialogue makes my blogs a little different, maybe a bit more homey or friendly in their tones. Or at least a semi-sarcastic friend!
The blogs we write for this class probably fall somewhere within each of the five categories:
- The Personal Blog
- Job Blogs
- Specialist Blogs
- News Blogs
- Advocacy Blogs
Everyone writes differently because everyone has a divergent take on things. It's more than likely one of our defining human traits! Where do I fall? Well, I much prefer to be a bit of everything.

I agreed that our class blogs are a bit of everything. I called it Experimental Blogs, the idea that every blog entry might fall under a different genre.
Everyone does write differently! The fact that you write the way you talk adds interest to your blogs.
