Midgard Blog

My ambition for some time has been to have a Blog site that has a significant reader list. I started Blogging about a year ago with lots of enthusiasm. I thought that I had something of interest to say and that there would be readers out there on the net that would be interested in my articles. I soon discovered that I was writing to myself, and that my Blog was little more then a personal diary.

The way Blogs work is that the more you post the more likely it can be picked up by search engines and be accessible to people. So writing one 300+ word Blog a week will never get you noticed anywhere.If you look at very successful Blogs you will notice that they have a numberof authors and that one or more postings are made per day. So the answer to having a Blog that has any hope of being noticed and read is to have numerous authors. Also I will ask each Author to focus their area of interest and expertise so the Blog will cover a wide range of subjects.

The name I chose was Midgard Journal. http://midgardjournal.blogspot.com/

The subjects that I would like to deal with on Midgrad Journal are:
-world politic-American and European political issues,
-social and economic issues.
-religions; especially Christian and Islamic extremists.

Authors will have a wide range of independence on a social and political issues, There are a few points that authors will need to have in common; such as:-men and women are equal.-secular democracy is the least harmful way to govern a country.-no ethnic group is superior to another.
-there is to be no proselytizing of religions,

Anyone who is interested in joining me in making this Blog a major contender, please contact me offline at http://pindsvin@ymail.com Your home e-mail address will not appear in the Blog, and I will ask everyone to use a pseudonym rather their given name. The reason for this is that freedom of speech continues to be challenged, and what is legal to say today may not be tomorrow.
I am asking for a commitment of a minimum of one article a month of 300 or more words.

Cheers
Pindsvin

I'm afraid I'm not very good at putting down thoughts on paper. I wrote to let you know you are not writing in a vacuum. At 57 I'm still learning about my ancestors and may it always be so. Ole if you are reading this, I thank you for letting us know about this blog. I wish it the best and hope those who have a literary bend post here. I've read most of the posts and found them very interesting and informative. Thank you for this,
in Frith,
