First off, I promise to be honest and genuine with all of my posts. I do not wish to present myself as an authority on media in any way or proclaim all of my posts as fact. These are purely opinion-based and, frankly, may be subject to change as I learn and am exposed to new concepts about media. I am a Biology major so ideas about communication and the media are not my typical studies. In addition, I have no personal vendetta that I wish to force-feed my readers. All of my posts will be like a subjective outsider looking in and then forming her own opinions because, essentially, that is exactly what I am doing.
I also promise to offer thorough and complete insights. I don’t want to present one-sided arguments or any incomplete thoughts. Readers should be privy to the whole story, which I will do my best to present.
My final promise is to be as concise as I can. There’s nothing worse than having to sift through a bunch of fluff in order to get to the real meat of the post or article. In an effort to avoid this, I will do my best to get straight to the point and communicate as clearly as I can.
If there is anything that I can include or change about my writing style or blog that would help the reader, please do not hesitate to let me know. I invite comments and critiques so that I can better serve the needs of my readers, which ultimately enhances my ability to communicate.
It’s really encouraging to see that you’re dedicated to “no fluff,” and that you are open to suggestions made by readers. Going through jargon/fluff is a huge roadblock for reading things, so this is a great goal!

Thanks for including thoroughness in your goals here. I think blogs have the danger to be one of the most selfish media outlets available, and making sure to give a complete perspective rather than a one-sided one is huge.

Brooke, you write in such a way that is refreshing and real. I think this builds your “ethos” 🙂 and helps your readers trust what you say. The promise to be concise is also a great thing.
