    I had a quick question which I’d like to ask if you don’t mind.
    I was curious to find out how you center yourself and clear your mind before writing.
    I’ve had a difficult time clearing my thoughts in getting my thoughts out there.
    I do enjoy writing however it just seems like the first
    10 to 15 minutes are usually wasted just trying to figure out how to begin. Any
    suggestions or tips? Thank you!

  3. Hi! Do you know if they make any plugins to help with SEO?
    I’m trying to get my blog to rank for some targeted keywords but I’m not seeing
    very good gains. If you know of any please share.
    Thank you!

  5. Howdy this is kind of of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML.

    more interesting.
