I am writing a daily blog (Monday to Friday) on preparing spiritually and physically

to lead a Pilgrimage of 100 miles in September.

I need your help!

TODAY I AM LEARNING TO BLOG.

And tomorrow I shall learn to tweet.

After ten months of trying to do it my self-taught way, I decided to take some time out and see what I should be doing, what I might be doing, what others recommend.

So here I am; sitting in the Bolt Hole in the Cotswolds, with a three day agenda.

Read. Learn. Write.

And detox. I’m on a light fruit/vegetable/yogurt/lots of water diet for 48 hours.

Could be somewhat light headed after that.

Let me ask you:

How did you learn to blog and tweet?

What are your best tips?

What should I know to do or not to do?

How do I build a platform?

And who are the best ‘professionals’ in the business that you would recommend I should research and learn from?

All information and help will be gratefully received. Please put your advice, comments, suggestions and ideas below:
