I’m happy to accept this blogger recognition! I thank my blogger friend, Camie, for nominating me for this award. You should check out her fun travel, homeschool, mothering blog at: https://camiescozycorner.wordpress.com
I began blogging in May 2012 after following a friend’s blog about her family’s adoption journey. I had recently taken an online college poetry course which renewed my interest in writing poems. So a “poem in my pocket” was born.
My advice for new bloggers? Ignore the stats and write from the heart! Share your own unique point of view. If you want to make friends and gain readers, visit other blogs and/or online communities and leave comments. Every writer likes encouraging feedback so give it.
I would like to nominate a few of my favorite bloggers for this award:
Jess Van Roekel, devotional writer with a beautiful heart blogging grace: http://welcomegrace.com
Elsie, aka “kiwinana”, hosts interesting tanka and other writing prompts: https://ramblingsofawriter2016.com
