I believe that the most important thing here is to know why you want to blog. What is your objective? If it is to build a personal brand, you need to start defining what that is. For instance, I speak fluent Japanese and Chinese but it may not be apparent if you read my blog. Why don’t I mention it more? Because it’s irrelevant to my average customer. I do try to work in these experiences sometimes, but they are not front and center. Just because you have a lot of experiences it doesn’t mean you have to weave all of them into your personal brand, only those that will help you reach your objective.

So you need to start thinking about what you want to do and how your brand will help you get there. Your blog will now help fuel your brand and achieve your objective. There are creative ways of tying in all of your experiences into a single brand, but that is an art in itself and will require time. What’s more important is what you want to do in your future. I don’t think anything is too niche these days…there are lots of bloggers who talk about social media for non-profits, so your concentrating on the arts side is a great topic which will definitely help you get noticed just by the fact that not many are doing it. But, once again, if this doesn’t interest you, you need to start blogging about what does interest you.

Sorry to make this a long speech, but I hope it does provide you some information that you can use. Please feel to respond to my comment should you have additional questions!
