On Writing Blog:
1. Start by reading the other blogs to get an idea of how to write.
2. Try to answer WHAT and WHY about your topic. Write the blog post to solve a problem. Your blog post will much likely to help a reader if they can connect with the problem statement.

6. Do not pressurize yourself to write. It is something which you should enjoy.
7. Use draft posts to save any topic which comes to your mind, so you can later write about them.
8. There will always be negative validations, ignore them and keep moving forward.
