As you may well know, I started blogging back in 2002. Engage with your audience, and find out what they need.

But if the voice is drab, you’re still not sure what your story is about, or you haven’t identified your audience, consider writing at least a portion of your book in letter form.

November 2002 : I started my first personal blog almost nine years ago, without even the faintest suspicion that it’d be anything more than a hobby. September 2005: I published a post here on ProBlogger talking about how I’d reached the “six-figure&# level of income from blogging. Blogging: from hobby to job.

The key 3 things I would encourage you to keep in mind: Keep it relevant to your audience/topic/niche.

When I started blogging in 2002 I had no intention of doing it professionally. The great thing about launching ProBlogger this way was that I’d already worked out that there was an audience for the topic, I already knew that I enjoyed writing about the topic and I already had 50 or so posts that I could transfer over to the new domain.

It takes time to build an audience, to build a brand, and to build trust and a good reputation.

And so then really sort of 2002, 2003, I guess. So the question is— If we use either Midjourney, or we use ChatGPT, or Sudowrite, or any of these tools, and we generate some work that we then publish and sell, is this an issue?
