Stepping Up in Blogging

I never would have thought that I would get into blogging. I was never a excellent(much less a good) writer in school. I hated it. Whenever we had a paper to write, I would try my best to find someway to get out of it or try to get my parents to help me out with most of it. Nine times out of ten, those ideas didn't work.

Fast forward to 2015 and now I'm blogging. The crazy thing is I have two blogs. Yes! Two blogs. From someone who use to hate writing to someone who writes almost everyday. That's crazy to me. You are probably asking, "What really made you wanna blog?" To be completely honest, I don't know. Just last year, I knew I always heard people talking about writing blogs and how they can express their feelings through them. I thought, "What the hell! Why not!"

So I started. I wrote different stuff, just to get my name out there. I will say that I was not(and still not today) an award winning writer, but for me I was doing a pretty good job. I made new friends, learned new things, and actually made me go out around the city more. I think it was doing more than just helping my writing skills. It made me network more than I ever have in the past.

With all this momentum, you would think that I would have lots of people reading everyday, right? Well not so much. I took a break from it to start my YouTube channel(which I still do). Then I had the planning of my wedding to figure out. Of course throw in just life struggles and problems, and I was no where near where I should be in my writing.

Now that the wedding is over and life is not so crazy, I was able to put my focus on writing again. Since I have been back writing, I think more people have actually been reading my work. I think that's awesome. I have actually had people tell me that they enjoy my post. Wow!! I never knew that I could actually be good at this. Who ever knew that I would be good at this writing thing? Not me!!

So now it's 2015, and I have this blog and my beer blog(click here to go to it). I think my blog game is stepping up a little bit. I only hope that this year, more people will read my blogs. I hope that I can inspire people who didn't like to write to actually start doing so. I only hope that in 2015, my blogging empire will continue to grow. I still have a long way to go in my writing, but I have a good feeling that it will continue to get better with time.
