As I mentioned yesterday, this is my 100th post on this blog. πΒ I thought long and hard about what I wanted to write about today. It is a special post after all. Do I post some poetry? Do I post another short story? I have done all that already, so that isn’t very special..
I think for this post, I want to celebrate this blog by showing my appreciation to everyone who takes the time to read this. Whether you have been here since the beginning or you have just discovered this blog, I really do appreciate everyone.
I have been writing stories for so long, I can’t imagine doing anything else.Β So, after college, I realized that this was the time for me to really pursue my dreams of becoming a published author.Β It was time to put it all into action. I had so many stories to share and so many characters for people to meet.
I started this blog to share my experiences about being a “newbie” writer and trying to achieve that dream of mine. I wanted to inspire others to do the same, to never be afraid to go for what you want. I also wanted to connect with other writers and join them on their journeys. I’m so glad that itΒ has happened for me.
Without the constant support I have received from family and friends (whether it be in real life or in the blogger world), I don’t think I could have managed to keep going. When I hit a slump, you all are willing to pick me up and encourage me to keep going. Thank you for being my “cheerleaders.” You have no idea how much that means to me.
It’s been quite a journey so far and more people are joining me. π I welcome you all and hope it is as enjoyable for you as it is for me. With my book halfway finished, I really can’t wait for everyone to read it. My goal will be within reach and that is a celebration I cannot wait to have!
So, thank you again for all of the kind words and conversations we have had on this blog. I just appreciate that people come onto this blog and read these words I write.
That is why I’m dedicating this special 100th post to you. This blog isn’t really intended for myself. π
Now, onto 100 more blog posts! I hope to see you all at the 200th post celebration.
Congrats on your 100th post!! π I hope to make it there in a few months or so. I’m just starting so I’m only working on my 5th post. I’ve got a long road ahead of me…
