How I Started Blogging

If you’ve read my Liebster Award post, then you know the brief version of this already. As I’ve mentioned in my intro post, I don’t have many friends who read. Of all the friends I have, only 2 are readers and even those don’t read much because of their hectic lives. So, I have pretty much no one to discuss my favourite reads with (for those thinking “haven’t seen much of that on this blog either”, I know ! I’m getting to it. Working on a review right now !). I then considered starting a booktube channel, but soon realised that talking to a camera is just not my thing ! I find it too funny and I never talk loud enough on camera (otherwise, I’m very loud, which is irritating even for me !). So, starting a blog seemed like a nice idea, though it took some time to find a name that’s not taken. I realised there are bookish dragons and owls and a lot of other animals but no humans, so here we are !!

Advice to new bloggers

I still consider myself a new blogger (it’s only been a month), but to newer bloggers-

1. Post what you like writing about, but make that interesting and post regularly, don’t worry about your stats, that’ll build over time.
2. Instead of trying to increase followers, try building connections. After all, blogging is about meeting people with similar interests as you and making friends.
