Ten months ago, on June 14, 2012, I started a second blog, Organize Your Family History. It emerged from my interest in genealogy research and my desire to find a way to integrate my passion for this hobby with my organizing business. (One way I’ve done that is to introduce The Heirloom Explorer package
I don’t take starting a blog lightly. I think if you’re going to have a blog, you have to commit to writing posts. (I’ve written 737 posts on this blog, counting this one, since 2006.) So when I established Organize Your Family History I committed to blogging at least weekly. (I actually shoot for twice weekly, but don’t always get there.) One big benefit: Knowing that I need to blog helps me make time to do the actual family history research that fuels the blog.
In the blog, I write about dealing with the overwhelmed feelings that I have experienced with family history research. I write about ways to organize family history records. And I write about the challenges and triumphs of my own research. As with this blog, I just try to be authentic and write about what interests me, in hoping it will interest others.
If you are interested in family history research, I urge you to check it out. I also have a Facebook page for the blog and I’d love for you to like it!
