Hello vandybandy, thank you for stopping by and am happy you enjoyed my post. I visited your blog this morning. The first thing that struck me was that you have an interesting writing style. It is honest and vulnerable! Your blog is, however, very new [I could only find 1 post] in addition to the ‘about’ page. Hence it becomes a little difficult to give any real feedback, as there is not enough content to review. 🙂
At this point all I can say is: 1) do define what are the thematic areas you are going to be writing about, and 2) please keep in mind when writing how can your posts add value to the reader. Is a post going to be informative, entertaining, or contemplative, triggering mirrored emotions and thoughts? Though blogging is personal, posts still need to be of value to the reader. How do you intend to enrich their lives? That is what will make them come back to your blog, and even read through a post.
Hope the above helps.
