    Marisa,
    I think making a blog is easy. My first blog was at HomeschoolBlogger. It is free and was pretty easy to learn. A lot of homeschooled teenagers create blogs there. Visit their Library to get started.

    Then I learned Wordpress and now have several blogs there. It’s free and if you Google “Wordpress tutorials,” you can learn a lot. There are even several YouTube videos to show you how.

    Have fun blogging!
