Email, something like this:

I'm a senior journalism student at the University of Central Oklahoma who is studying blogging for media.
I have been studying your blog and would like to ask your advice and  a few questions by email for a class presentation. My assignment is to get a  a sense of what makes your blog effective, and to learn from your blogger’s experience.
If possible, I'd like to send you those questions this next week, and will need responses by March 7 if possible.
Please let me know by  Feb. 28 if that is convenient. I look forward to hearing from you.
My professor, Dr. Terry M. Clark, at tclark@uco.edu, can confirm this assignment if you wish.
My blog is XXXXXX.

Thank you,

your name
