Nice play on words. I picked the title of my blog so that I could cover whatever I want to write about on my blog. If it is a part of my "journey", it is open for possible discussion. When I started writing my blog on June 1, 2007, I had just a general idea as to the direction I wanted to go with it. I plan to travel from one topic to another as I feel the "need" to write. Writing isn't a luxury for me. It is a need. Have a glorious day. Derek, I like your “Wong” way. Nice play on words.

I'm enjoying his blog from what I've read so far. It's definitely true that it's very easy to slowly expand and broaden the topics that one could cover in a blog. It seems like one's weight, it's easy to go wide and difficult to go narrow. :) @Lisa Marie Mary

I constantly find the scope of topics on my niche blogs 'ever-widening'! LOL! I've been rather enjoying John Pozadzides blog lately, as he says that 'specialization is for insects'! I just love that! His blog is http://onemansblog.com I bet you'd like it, too! Niche blogs are definitely harder to maintain! I constantly find the scope of topics on my niche blogs ‘ever-widening’! LOL!

I always appreciate having someone willing to read a little of what I write. And don't worry, you're not the only one who has a hard time with focusing. :P @Robin from Israel Thanks for commenting! I definitely think that writing about things that you're interested in is beneficial (if only for yourself). I liken it to the ability to laugh at your own jokes. So even if you tell a horrible joke that nobody laughs at, someone will have a good time: you. @Jill

And when you write about something you're actually interested in that shines right on through. Excellent point.

After reading your comment, I realized that's pretty much how I feel! You just said it a little more concisely. @Rory Thanks for your comment and for being willing to start the GWP in the first place.
