The Blogging Tag

09/10/2014      Leave a Comment

This came from Anna’s blog and inspired me to follow suit and complete her short blogging tag. I’d really love to read some of your answers to this too so please do comment and leave your links for me.

Blogging Tag

When did you start blogging and why?

I started blogging a long long time ago. It wasn’t really blogging as it now back then obviously. It was more of an online diary thing. It was all pretty MySpace and emo and I cringe thinking about it. I started this blog back in July 2012 but didn’t really start paying proper attention to it until last year. I actually started this blog thanks to a lot of encouragement from the lovely Annie Bean. I had become a bit fed up with work and was a bit stuck in a rut so she encouraged me to start writing again and Lojo Vs The World was born.

How many people in real life know about your blog?

Most people do I think. I still get a bit shy about it sometimes and I don’t know why really. I think it’s because I feel like my writing isn’t as good as it could be sometimes or because I think people will roll their eyes at the topics I choose to write about. I’m not sure. I just need to increase my self-confidence, I guess.

What are your favorite posts to read?

I love house tours. I’m obsessed with seeing other people’s living spaces and then dreaming about my dream home and getting inspiration for when we finally have a space I can actually decorate.

List a blog you discovered recently?

I’ve just started reading The What Now Blog. I can’t really remember how I stumbled across it but recently Louise has posted a few posts that are really striking a chord with how I’m feeling at the moment, giving me a bit of motivation and making me think about my work life in a different way.

Which posts are you most proud of?

I think the post I’m most proud of is one I didn’t even write myself. Depression Is An Illness was written by my best friend, Hannah. I think I’m most proud of the fact that she poured her heart out to try to help others and then let me publish it for her.

Which advice would you give future bloggers?

Go for it. You don’t know if you’ll like it until you try it and you’ve lost nothing by having a go. With WordPress and other blogging tools available on your mobile you can write any time, any place so don’t wait.

 I tag all of you. Please leave me your links in the comments so I can read your answers too.

Kisses,

lojo
