Blog Post Title One
With my head filled with adorable Silkie chickens from the State Fair, I began weaving a story about Simon Silkie while sitting at my in-laws kitchen table in Colorado.
In the initial draft, Simon literally squawked by the end of the story. But that didn’t seem quite right to me. If Simon, like many of my students, didn’t speak, then he would have to find a silent solution to his challenges.
Although some of my students do develop verbal speech, many do not, and I wanted to showcase the fact that just because a child doesn’t speak it doesn’t mean they don’t have important things to communicate with us. So I gave Simon one of the tools my students use to communicate with; pictures. It worked for him!
It’s my hope that people will read this story and recognize that peoples thoughts, ideas, and needs are valuable no matter how they are communicated.
It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.
Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.
