Blogging or Practicing?

As a designer, my job is communication.  I am fluent in visual communication because that is what I do — all the time.  Someone comes to me and asks me to take their napkin sketch (or less!) and turn it into a professional piece of communication and I can do that fluently.  However, when someone asks me to  write for them … like copy writing a brochure or website I freeze up.  Even finding the words for my own site, describing what I do is, like pulling teeth.  So I think I need to begin this journey of a creative design business blog with the perspective of practicing getting my verbal descriptions down on “paper” and learning to be more fluent.
