Have you ever thought about starting a craft blog?We get to craft; we photograph; we write; we learn to program and write links; sometimes we whine or rant a bit. We get to connect with other craft lovers all over the world.
It’s a lot of fun and a lot of work. What keeps us going or makes us wanna quit? Let some of my craft blogging friends tell you why they do it.
Today’s Interviewee: Tammy Powley
1. The best part about blogging is … it's a fast and easy way to update my site, much better than using HTML as I once did.
2. The worst part is … there is pressure to update more than I have time to do.
3. The hardest part about blogging is … thinking of topics I think other people will be interested in reading about.
4. The easiest part is … it (Wordpress at least) is very user friendly.
5. One thing blogging has changed about me is … I don't think I've changed, but it has given me a chance to get to know a lot of crafters I may not have met otherwise.
6. The most exciting thing I’ve blogged about was … well, obviously, my jewelry making books.
7. The most-used item in my craft room or studio (not counting the computer) is … my hand tools: round-nosed pliers, wire cutters, chain-nosed pliers.
8. The most neglected item is … my torch.
9. On Sunday mornings, I read the paper with a cup of hot tea in my hands.
10. I know my blog has an impact when … I get lots of comments.

Even though I got to know Tammy before any of us were blogging, I do feel like I know her so much better through the (more-or-less) daily writing that we do! Thanks for profiling her :-)
