Ahh so I have been
Reading blogs forever now and never got the guts to
actually start my own. So here I am. Man how scary!!! Going to have to think about what I will be doing with this. How did you all feel when you first started and why did you decide to start
your blog??
Hi there! I remember the first post was so scary- I was almost afraid to hit the "post" button! It gets to be so much fun, you wonder why you were ever scared in the first place!
ReplyDeleteI decided to start my own blog when I discovered a blog written by a local lady. I thought to myself "If she can do this, why can't I?!"
My biggest piece of advise to a new blogger is to leave comments! No one will know you're out there unless you make yourself known! And all bloggers love comments- they would be thrilled to see your message!
Sorry about my wordy rambling comment- I just get so excited to see a new blog! Take care!
Thanks for the great ideas Kate!!
ReplyDeleteHi!
ReplyDeleteOh boy, it's been over 5 years since I started my first blog ;)
I started to blog mainly because of my knitting. But after a while I started to write about life i general too :)
Good luck on your blogging! I'll be checking back to ;)
I felt very overwhelmed at the prospect of having my personal thoughts out there on the internet for everyone to see. I mean, I'm okay with my sometimes random and weird inner dialogue, but to get that out on my blog was sometimes terrifying!
ReplyDeleteThen I quickly realized that the blog became a place where I could share those thoughts and instantly know that there were so many other people out there who felt the same way.
I love all the friends and contacts I have made since starting out over a year ago. I'm looking forward to making even more!
Welcome to the world of blogging! I started blogging a year ago to offer free knitting patterns to others. I didn't read blogs very often before I started and didn't really know what I was doing, but one year later I am still in love with blogging and have made the most wonderful creative, supportive friends.
