Absolutely not. Rants and undisciplined self-expression in a blog
are a total waste of time. Save that for your diary.
Ask any marketing expert in the publications industry: blogging is
one of the few ways to get your work out to the public and,
ultimately, the publishers. It's getting harder--make that almost
impossible--for a first novelist--or even a midlist author who
doesn't hit the NYTimes Bestseller list--to get something published
with a major commercial publisher. But get a ready-made audience
from your blog that you can "sell" to the publisher and you've got a
chance.
Obviously, what's on your blog had better be pretty good.
