		<description>Grannymar,

I think I understand the Irish Blog Awards - it's like the election of the Pirate King in 'Pirates of the Caribbean III" ;-)</description>

		<description>I started writing a biography several years ago and found that I had hundreds of small memories that needed to be written down but weren't big enough to make into full chapters - enter blogging, and excellent notepad, an excellent way to develop ideas into chapters and an excellent way to record tomorrows history today.</description>

		<description>Interesting question, GM, and great answers. I heartily agree with all of them.
I write in other venues as well but find blogging releases a more personal spin on things. Some of my blog entries I extrapolate for later articles. But also and this is the big one, I find the connection with commenters and reading their blogs the best part. It is a wonderful way of interacting with kindred spirits such as yourself. My blogmates are my friends.

		<description>That is such a great question.  I think I blog because i have so darn much to say and I assume...most of my friends  don't want to hear it..no really this way they can choose or not if they want to hear my ramblings.   

I got into blogging because of my partners son.  We wanted to write a book..and here I am...

It's the best thing minus my family and friends..wonderful thought provoking question...

Thanks grannymar for the support and comments on my site...I hope you noticed your one of my favorites...
My best,
Dorothy from grammology
