Why writing a blog can be intimidating

---

Have you ever thought about starting your own blog? Well if you have then you know how overwhelming it can be. What do you write about? How do you gain subscribers? Who is going to read it? The questions are endless… but they are all valid! What every blogger says when asked this question is “just start writing.” Seems like the worst answer on planet earth because what are you supposed to write about? The topics are endless and shouldn’t I just write about one thing? But I am here to say that really is the truth. When it comes to blogging people want to engage with people who have a clear and honest voice.. whatever the topic may be. If you read my about me section you know that my life is full of different endeavours and activities and sometimes I get lost trying to find an identity for myself. THAT’S OKAY. Writing has helped me clear all my thoughts and feel confident expressing myself no matter what kind of day I am having, what kind of mood I am in, or whatever I am thinking about. Get it out, write it down, you never know what ideas are going to come out of a single thought and you never know who might be inspired by something that you put out into the world. One of my favourite bloggers Casie Stewart, https://casiestewart.com, is a perfect example of someone who writes what she wants when she wants, and it is refreshing. No thought goes unwritten and there is something for everyone on her page. Find inspiration in everything and don’t be afraid to get it out, ignore the fog, ignore the “rules” you think are there, just write! It gets easier from there.
