    First off I want to say wonderful blog! I had a quick question which I'd like to ask if you
    don't mind. I was curious to know how you center yourself and clear your head before writing.
    I have had a difficult time clearing my thoughts in getting
    my thoughts out. I truly do enjoy writing but it
    just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are lost just trying
    to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or tips?
    Appreciate it!

    Hmm it looks like your website ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess I'll just sum it up what I had written and say, I'm thoroughly enjoying your blog.
    I too am an aspiring blog blogger but I'm still new
    to the whole thing. Do you have any recommendations for beginner
    blog writers? I'd certainly appreciate it.
