Lifestyle writing is probably one of the most enjoyable profession or hobby nowadays. I myself have experienced it as an Entertainment blogger because I got to enjoy things that I like. But being writer is not easy. Personally I didn't took formal courses in writing. Most of the times I receive feedbacks criticizing my writing techniques. And it makes me feel bad. I know as a blogger I don't need to hassle myself to formalize my writing because the fact that it is really not a serious occupation. But friends also advice me that I still need to try and polish my writing skills because it is also for the good of my blog.
