First Idea for Passion Blog

One idea for my Passion Blog for English 15 is to create a blog dedicated to the band Maroon 5.  This is by far my favorite band, and I feel that the possibilities for entries are endless.  For example, I could talk about the band’s origins and how it is that they got their start.  I could spend individual weeks on the band’s five members.  This could include several articles on Adam Levine, who has seen quite recent leaps in stardom with his appearance on The Voice, his new clothing line, and, of course, his election as 2013’s “Sexiest Man Alive” by People Magazine.  I could write entries about individual songs, discussing underlying meanings and stories behind lyrics and making recommendations for listeners of my personal favorites.  I could even discuss the benefits of seeing Maroon 5 live as compared to listening to recordings, for I have attended two of the band’s concerts.  These last two ideas would allow me to make the blog very interactive, for I could post Maroon 5 songs on the blog as well as live videos taken from the concerts to give readers a true understanding of the band’s genre and of the concert experience.  I feel like this would be an excellent blogging opportunity for me because I am so personally connected to the subject matter.  Writing about something that you love takes the “work” out of homework and even makes the experience enjoyable.  This is, after all, a “Passion” Blog, and I want to make sure that I can write about something unique that makes me happy while writing and keeps me alert and attentive to details.

  1. I would definitely go for the Maroon 5 blog! I feel that a lot of people may write about travel, and although you could make that unique and interesting, it seems as if you are more passionate about Maroon 5! I feel like a lot of girls would find this interesting!

  2. I agree with you, since this is a passion blog write about something you are extremely passionate about. I also think linking songs, youtube videos, and other types of media will make the blog more interesting and unique. It seems you know about Maroon 5 so writing about this subject will come naturally.

  3. Both Ideas are great! A lot to say about each and you seem very passionate about both, especially the Maroon 5 topic. I believe you would like this topic more than the other one, but either choice would be very interesting to read about

  4. I would be very interested in all of the updates about Adam Levine. Also since this is a more personal blog, I think you and your audience will get more out of it.

  5. Sounds like your’e very excited about this idea, so it would make a great passion blog. Having this blog would also give you a good internet presence because Maroon 5 is very popular right now. The topic is specific enough that you could expand on it a lot without getting too off topic.

  6. I like his idea Lindsey because you are very passionate about it (extremely passionate actually) so it would not only be more enjoyable for you to write but or your followers to read.
