About Blogging

Written by Guest Contributor

Melanie Nelson answers your basic blogging questions M-F at Blogging Basics 101. She also hosts giveaways from outstanding vendors at Bloggy Giveaways. And, as if that doesn’t keep her busy enough, she also blogs about her daily life at Don’t Try This at Home.

Melanie Nelson has both a BA and MA in Technical Writing. At the time she was studying, her major seemed perfect for her. She was extremely detail oriented and had a knack for explaining things step-by-step. She loves to research and help others learn.

Or in Melanie’s words, “I’m a smart aleck who can explain things.”
