  • How to use the Blog? Each TMLP member can have their own blog. If you have not set one up yet, just click the "Create My Blog" button on the right side below. Fill out the settings screen - click here for instructions. Once your blog is setup you can add entires. Only you will be able to add entires to your blog and other TMLP members will not. 
  • How to add entries? Use the "Add Blog Entry" button on the right below. All entires will become available on the TMLP site immediately.
  • What to write about? Well, pretty much anything that excites you - experiences, thoughts, ideas, etc. about speaking, life, the world, or anything else that you want to talk about! You can write one paragraph or 10 pages - it is entirely up to you.
  • Why blog? Writing interesting stuff and about various topics will promote our site and yourself as an author. Our site will rank higher in search engines and will engage more internet surfers in conversations with us as they post their comments after everyone's blog entries. In this day and age, conversations on the Internet are key both to your and the club's success. Happy blogging!
