What’s the Trick to Write below Your Video?

     I don't know if you know this, but there is a trick to writing below a video that is sent to our blogs. On a nearly weekly basis, I share my YT videos on my blog. Blogger throws the video into a post, and I can publish the post as is, with just a video there, or I can write something below the video. As a writing teacher, I feel obligated to write something, even if it’s just a blurb of sorts. When I did the first Share on Blogger, I couldn’t figure out how to add my writing piece below the video. Then, I just experimented with various techniques until I stumbled onto the trick.

     My problem is I keep forgetting the trick. If you're a blogger and you have a YouTube channel and you share your videos on your blog, do you write little ditties below your videos? If you don't, is it because you don't know how to move to the next line – the line below the video? Here’s the trick to do it on a computer (I have no idea how to do it on the phone or tablet; perhaps it works in the same fashion):

     Put the cursor just to the lower right of the video and press the space bar. Next, hit the Enter key to move down one line. Then, type your heart out or write just a bit to introduce your video.

     Easy-peasy!
