Hi, I just started trying to blog (video games opinion and I suppose it could fall under reviewing as well) and I feel a bit overwhelmed thinking whether it feels "correct" or if it is missing something.

Currently it is just writing with pictures with it linked where I took it from on the title text option on the images and the publishing that.

Is there any sites or resources one can recommend for reading?

I am more than willing to read any advice anyone would like to share as this is still very new for me.

I am using Blogger, so if there is any tips anyone would like to share in regards to the platform, I am also willing to read those as well.

Those links were kinda irrelevant to the suggestion to have a separate space where you don't worry about what you write or how you write it or if it makes sense.

I think I am doing something like that at the moment, I wrote a whole lot of ideas - just having a name and saved it as unpublished posts. I look at the list, select something and try writing about it - if it starts feeling like it is not working out I stop, save it and have it as an unfinished work for when I can have a better idea what to do with it.

It has been helping me with writing a topic and choosing one I enjoy writing about - I then publish what I find acceptable and then it works as a proof that I am doing something and can be adjusted at a later time, have works in progress that didn't work out how I planned and then a whole list of ideas I can try work on so I have so I also have something to look at and work on.

Awesome! I think you'll be surprised how your writing will mature.

Enjoy it!
