Two years ago today, I published my first blog post.
I'm so glad I started.
I enjoy connecting with other people. I've been exposed to so many bloggers and crafters that I wouldn't have seen if people hadn't cheered me on and commented on my posts.
I cherish the new friendships that have happened because of blogging.
I like having some accountability for my projects. I have completed 2 years of Project Life and lots of little crafts projects. I don't know if I would have done them all if I hadn't felt some responsibility to share with my readers. And I don't feel pressure in a negative way... I just like to think there are people out there sitting at their computer waiting for me to post something new. LOL! I wouldn't want to disappoint them.
If you're thinking about starting a blog, just go for it. Start simple. Pick a name and sleep on it for a couple nights. Connect with me via Facebook or email if you have questions/rants/fears and I will try to help! (not so much with technical help... my only advice there would be to use a ready-made theme. You can always learn HTML and jazz it up later).
Just start!
I love reading each and every comment! Be sure to keep up with me on Instagram, Pinterest, and
Happy Blogiversary, Emily!!!! Woot-Woot!!!!

DeleteCongratulations on this milestone! I have been blogging for about 2 years--off and on. My goal this year is to stick with it and post at least weekly and to hopefully find my groove. Sharing Project Life definitely gives us something to blog about! Your blog is awesome - from look to feel to content. I always look forward to seeing your posts and pages! All the best in 2015! :)
ReplyDeleteYes, doing PL is a great way to come up with blog posts! :) Thanks so much, Michelle. I find that scheduling posts in advance helps me stay on track.
