Boredom is this wonderful thing for writers – it’s where I get most of my inspiration from.
it’s like, recently, we were sitting in class waiting for our tutor and someone started talking about books they were never going to read – and we all decided, that if we couldn’t read a book, we had to do *something* with it. By the time the tutor had come online, four of us were making book sculptures!
It’s also how I get into the most trouble. honestly, if I’m bored I’m more likely to volunteer for something.
So, I’ve set myself limits – no more ordering domains off of Godaddy – not after I spent all those months pruning them, and no more volunteering for long term commitments, unless they’re good for me. I’ll need to see how long I last 🙂

Hi there, I’m Office Cat. My pet, Kai, has graciously allowed me to come onto her blog today to introduce the ‘office cat guide to
Blogging’. But first, may I offer my feline feliciations and give you an idea of who I am
Kushie, the Office Cat
and my (blogging) pedigree.
My name is Jenuine WildTansy, and I am an F4 Bengal. But my mom (and pet) calls me Kushka, or Kushie, or Fuzzbutt, which is very undignified.
But what my pet has told me about Blogging is *really* valuable, so valuable in fact that I wanted to share. She’s doing the 30 day challenge, and so am I!
From now on, the ‘Office Cat’s guide to Blogging’ will appear on WPforAuthors, but mom has graciously allowed me to start on her blog first, and get everyone interested.
And here’s my first tip.
1) Personality
Forget worrying about SEO, forget worrying about domain names, the first thing you’ve GOT to do is find your gorgeous voice. Like my piercing stare, a gorgous, sleek voice will be strokable, skritchablle and entirely memorable. Once you’ve got your voice, you can plan your blog.
Remember, I’m appearing DAILY at Wpforauthors, and I hope you’ll join me there from tomorrow!
Till next time! Kushie, the Office Cat
