You ask: "How do I start a blog?"
"What is a travel writer?"

Let's start with the blog.

3. Click the "New Blog" button
4. Create a title- follow this example: Chris' Travels Through US History or Sally's Travels Through US History or Mike's Travels Through US History
5. Create your address- follow this example:  Chris7-1 or Sally7-3 or Mike 8-4 (NOTICE THERE ARE NO SPACES BETWEEN your name and class)
6. Select a template: You choose -make it pretty!
