The Zen of Blogging e-Book

by Brad Isaac on April 11, 2008

Hunter Nuttall has published an e-Book for all who aspire to blog. zen_of_blogging

If you are new to blogging, this is a great book to give you some insight on how to start the right way. When you’re just staring, you’ll have questions about topics (niche), number of posts, guest posting, monetization, social media and whatnot. This book will get you off on the right foot.

It’s a story about a writer who aspires to be a great blogger so he climbs a mountain to talk to an old wise blogging master. Is that you David Carradine?

Even if you’ve blogged for a long time, it can reinforce good habits. As I read it, I remembered when I first started, I had asked every question the student asks in the book. And I feel the master’s answer is spot on.

From page 2:

If you’re into Zen and you’re into blogging, read and share this ebook.
If you’re into Zen but you’re not into blogging, share this ebook.
If you’re not into Zen but you’re into blogging, read this ebook.
If you’re not into Zen and you’re not into blogging, read it twice.

It’s a quick read so it won’t be too distracting for the day – and the twist at the end is good!

Thanks, Brad. Excellent read, but I need to go back and read it again – probably several times! My first thoughts are that you need to have passion for whatever you write about – the rest will come, and nothing is “wrong” in the blogging world.

I just wish I was at the stage where my blogs just flow in my dreams.

I think this is a great little booklet, and very timely. When it seems a lot of blogging advice centers on traffic and monetization, it’s nice to see someone who pays attention to (a) the satisfaction of running a blog, (b) blogging without fear and (c) blogging as an individual as an asset.

Thanks a lot, it made my day. :)

@Rod: It’s interesting how you and I took different meanings from the book. ..that’s what Zen is like… finding your own meanings.

@Ria, glad you found it helpful :)
