It's hard to believe that it's already been a
whole year since I started my little corner of the Internet. I'd been umming
and ahhing over starting a blog for about three years. I even have lists of
blog post ideas that predate my blog by about two years!
My blog means a lot to me and I think any
blogger will say that the whole blogging thing is quite a journey! From
figuring out HTML and social media, to tackling flatlays and photographing your
food until it goes cold, there's a whole lot of faff that goes along with
blogging. It is, however, such a great creative outlet and I love writing, so
it's a given that I like that part too!
A year on and over 150 blogposts later, I've
posted every week, three times a week. I got the due date for my dissertation
wrong back in October and ended up having to write about 18,000 words in five
days. Nonetheless, I still posted three times that week. I work really hard to
uphold the schedule I set myself and that's definitely something I'm proud of!
Now, I'm well aware that I might sound like I'm massively blowing my own horn
here, but I very rarely give myself credit, and I think that it's alright to
give yourself a good old pat on the back every now and again!
Of course another big part of blogging is the
amazing blogging community. To the lovely, lovely people who read my blog,
comment, tweet me an interact with me on my various social media: thank you so
much! I get so inspired by the amazing blogs and Instagram feeds of the people
in the blogging community. It's so fab to see such a creative group of people
being independent and just doing their own thing on the Internet. I also really
want to start being more active on Twitter and chat more to others, I'm just
working on getting over my social media-shyness!
I think I'll keep this short and sweet so:
Happy 1st Birthday, Troves and Roses! Here's to (hopefully) a whole lot more
blogposts. Thank you again to all of you lovely readers who take the time out
of your day to read my ramblings. I'm so appreciative of you! Have a lovely
weekend! Happy Friday!
Happy Blogiversary & here's to many more! xx

Congratulation for hitting one year! I enjoy reading your blog because it's simple yet informative at the same time (also; pretty!pictures!). Hope to see more of you in the future ;)
ReplyDeleteNot blog related but I can't imagine writing 18.000 in a week, you deserve a great pat on the back!
