One Month of Blogging

A top down view of a notebook with bogging notes, surrounded by stationery items. On the left of the notebook is a pen, a roll of washi tape, a date stamp and a vintage camera. At the top of the photo is a white mug of tea on a white macramé coaster. On the right is a micron pen and the edge of a houseplant.

I’ve been blogging here in this space for one month now. It’s a nice little milestone, and I thought it was a good chance for a bit of reflection.

So I opened up my notebook and wrote down some of the things I’m thinking about:

what i’ve learned

  1. I started out planning to write every weekday but quickly realized it would be too much to keep up with. Now I’m posting four times a week, Monday to Thursday, and it’s so much better. It’s okay to have constraints to work within.
  2. I learned how to film and edit video on my phone!
  3. Blogging is a lot like journaling, and I like it.

what i’m wondering

I have plans to be in this space for a long time, and I have some thoughts and ideas about it that aren’t fully formed yet, so we’ll see how it goes…

  1. Whether I need to be posting anything from here on social media.
  2. How to incorporate some new topics which matter to me. For example, I’ve been spending time working on a climate related project which I’d love to talk about here.
  3. How to create community here.

my favourite posts so far

  • This one, which includes the video I made and which has received some really nice feedback, thank you!
  • The first one, because it’s the one that got me started.
  • The typewriter ones, here and here, because they were so much fun!

Looking forward to so much more content here… but for now, cheers to one month!

P.S. I need to stock up my IKEA Fenomen pillar candles and the signs on the display say “now or never”.
