Differences Between Ed. Nar's. in Books and Blogs

Books vs. Blogs


When it comes to writing an educational narrative in a book than on a blog, the difference can be quite large. The style of blogs, I feel, is more personal, and more about free writing. You don't have to worry too much about punctuation and you can write more expressively. With blogs, you can also customize your page adding different backgrounds, different text styles, colors, and even adding pictures to enhance your blog post 

With books, I feel like writing has to be more technical and you have to write to please the reader. With blogging, you're writing to almost please yourself and let out how you're feeling, or share things about your personal life. Blogging, you don't have to worry about what some publisher thinks of your work because you are the publisher. The tone of blogging, I feel, is a lot more relaxed then it is when writing a book. 

When it comes to depth, I feel like sometimes books can be a bit more informative than blogging. Of course, this is dependent on the type of blog/ type of book. Some bloggers can be very informative and go into so much depth about their topic while books can also do the same. Again, this is dependent on the writer. 

If it were up to me, I feel like reading/writing blogs is a lot more laid back and you can really get to know the writer on a more personal level by the way they write. When with books, the writing can be more technical and take a while to really get to know the writer. But none of this is set in stone. Like I said before, it's just all dependent on the writer.
