My Story

I’ve probably told this story a million times already, so I’m going to keep this super short. The TL;DR version of how I started my blog is that I was bothering my older sister (as siblings do) and she told me to start a blog to help with my boredom and I did. The end.

Advice

1. Don’t worry about the numbers.

Don’t stress too much about the statistics (followers, likes, views, etc.). In the long run, they don’t really matter. Blogging is miserable if you only think about the numbers and are only posting to get a lot of followers. As long as you are doing what you love, the numbers don’t matter.

2. Have fun!

Blogging is a casual thing. No need to stress about it too much! Just have fun πŸ™‚

Nominations

All of you lovely people! Yes, you too!

I want to hear about your story and advice! πŸ˜€

Until next time….

    Ahahah I loved the story of how you started blogging; short and sweet πŸ˜‰
    Btw, I saw you’re reading the Kiss of Deception. I was thinking about buying this book; how are you liking it so far?

      It’s pretty good! I’m actually rereading it right now, and it’s super interesting to see all the details I missed the first time. Let me just tell you, the whole story is pretty deceptive πŸ˜„

    I loved how your story was so sweet and short of how you started a blog! Most are extravagant, but it’s fun that yours is short and simple. 😊
    Does your sister have a blog as well?

      Hahaha thank you 😊
      No my sister doesn’t have a blog. She’s more of the photography kind of gal.
