50+ Followers Special!

I started blogging after a great friend of mine told me about WordPress. She also owns a blog, I am not sure if she will like if I write her blog’s link, so not including it. If she is allowing I will let you know. It is an amazing poetry blog.

I went home from school, and immediately got busy with my laptop. I made a website on WordPress. I started by posting writings about animal cruelty. You are requested to check those if you want to track down my progress. I wrote and wrote to campaign against cruelty towards animals. But, I realized that no one was reading my blog. Still now, not a single school friend of mine has followed me on WordPress except the one whom I mentioned in the first paragraph.

I had seen cooking blogs, book review blogs, photography blogs, poetry blogs. But I decided to do everything. I wanted my audience to get whatever they want. They must have a wide range of choice. Hence the tagline, Anything You Want. Even now, if you want to see me post about something just comment on one of my post. I will do it happily.

I thought that I should expand my domain. I started writing poems. You can of course go to the My Literary Works and Song Diary category to read them.

Then came the breakthrough. I got a follower. I really want to name her, but I respect their privacy, so I won’t. She left blogging recently. Then another follower. She really helped me with the basic stuffs in blogging. She helped me a lot. Thanks. I am not sure if I should use her name again.

Then again my blog was left unattended by people. I was the only one who read my posts. Just imagine the pain, I was writing and no one paid heed to it. Soon, I understood I had to blog for the sake of love of writing not publicity. I wrote and wrote and after a long year I had ten followers.

After that my 9th class started and I had to give up blogging completely. I had to focus on my studies. After that came 10th. Two long years, no post.

After the 10 th final boards exam was done I ran home and started blogging again. Now, I am on a 42 day streak. I post daily. I share every titbit of my teenage life. I started interacting with people, I posted my drawings, photographs of nature, better quotes, and yes it worked. I got you guys, who mean a lot to me. I don’t like to call you Followers, you are my supporters, who inspire me to write continuously. I genuinely started liking blogs and took time to read them and the authors read mine and appreciated them. I am happy now, having 53 great friends.

Each day is bright for me now. I know I am not alone. My love of writing has increased.

Thanks,

You people mean a lot to me. Keep supporting me like this.

      Yes there are. Playing video games. Looking at memes. Studying. Being alone. These are as good as writing.

      Thank you so much for your support. Some people love rhyming scheme but I prefer freeverse, so I guess I will surely continue with the same.
      Thanks for commenting
