WASH / WORDS = Niche
While this blog has covered a lot of topics (go to the upper right corner search box and search for just about anything if ya don’t believe me), I’m trying to REIN IN.
Focusing is tough when you’re as (unofficially) ADD as me but I’m learning formally (oh, btw you MUST check out the 30 Day Challenge, if you have ANY interest in internet marketing or the internet or marketing or…) and informally, focus is key. (Oh look! Bright shiny objects! Hmm, this is gonna be tougher than I thought.)
Anywho, this blog needs to start being about something. So I started thinking … what did I want it to be about – what do I care about, think others care about and think I have something to say about?
And then I remembered: Oh yah! Washington DC (Wash) and Writing (Words). Thus, the new new sidebars (look to the right of this post for the blue side-by-side boxes labelled “WASH” and “WORDS.” They’ll be changing each day with relevant posts from each subject area I’m following/reading and enjoying.If you click on “read more,” you’ll see the full collection by topic area. Once you’re on the WASH or WORDS page… well, frankly there’s a LOT you can do there. Advanced beginners probably know all about subscribing and “friending” but no worries, the theme today is FO. CUS. Focus. So just go, enjoy the linky-links and let me know what you think.
Let me know if you have a linky link for me, something great you’ve read on Washington or writing, broadly defined for now. I’m going to try to keep honing in on what this blog is about meanwhile.
Your comments, clicks (especially on my brand new ads), subscribing to me (via email or feed) are what will make it work. Thanks!

It is hard to be focused – I know I am very easily distracted also! Most of my sites do stick to one thing or another, though put them all together and they’re all over the map subject wise!
