The question of blogging may make more sense, if we reverse the cause and effect here. To write is, in essence, to put down your thoughts, your impressions and to believe that some unknown people will value them. And blogging is pretty much the same thing.
If you are shy, if you don't think your ideas worthy of everybody's time - you won't be able write books or write a blog, whatever. So, a good writer would necessarily have the qualities of a good blogger. And if a blog is dull and unsuccessful - perhaps it's a sign that it's author is not a good writer.
Personally, I read your blog, because it is well written - the smallest things of your life look interesting and memorable when you record them.
... well, and for the snippets, too. This snippet is underhanded, being too explicit. Now we'll have to wait for a year or more to find what happened to poor officer Blix in the end. :-)
