If you tweak the genres up to your tastes then this table should be useful for any blogger. I’ll be changing it up as I see fit as well.
I’ll probably increase the wordcounts by a 100 too at some point, when I am more used to writing regularly.- This topic was modified 3 weeks, 3 days ago by Stefankeys.

I have decided to use Scrivener to write my blog posts (since I bought it and haven’t used it in a year) and I will utilize this forum for the sake of brainstorming ideas.
I will keep you updated here about how this blogging experiment goes.
Added Food/Cooking Blog.

I have excluded Response blogs from the list because I don’t want to get into long and repetitive arguments with strangers.
I don’t exactly believe in Orwell’s rules but then again they are what you should follow, at least sometimes, if you want to be clearly understood. I am just posting them for easy access.
George Orwell’s Six Rules for Writing
1.Never use a metaphor, simile, or other figure of speech which you are used to seeing in print.
2. Never use a long word where a short one will do.
3. If it is possible to cut a word out, always cut it out.
4. Never use the passive where you can use the active.
5. Never use a foreign phrase, a scientific word, or a jargon word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent.
6.Break any of these rules sooner than say anything outright barbarous.
