When I started this blog I really only wrote about beauty. I always wanted to do DIYs and lifestyle too. I decided early on that I wanted this blog to be about everything I loved. I wanted to be about my life and my loves. So that's what I decided to do this year.
A lot of people tell you your blog has to fit into 1 or 2 niches in order to be found. That if you don't focus on one thing no one will want to follow you. And I guess I am focusing on one thing, me. I want to write about the things I love and enjoy.
I want this blog to be my happy place where I can be myself and share what I love with the world. A place where I'm free to be me because I don't always get that in the real world.
Some people might think that I'm pandering to audiences because I blog about beauty, then geeky, then lifestyle, then blogging. But I write about what I love when I want.
I lost all motivation for writing my blog in 2016 as you can see but the 34 next to the year in my archives list. I wasn't entirely writing about everything I loved. Writing nothing but beauty kind of burned me out. I had a month where I wrote blogging tutorials and I really loved it.
So last November I decided to write about everything I wanted to. I wasn't going to let the norm of one niche hold me back. I wasn't going to create a blogging tutorial blog, or geek and gaming blog. I wanted one blog. One happy place.
If I stuck to that one niche place I never would have been able to keep blogging. I would have burned out and maybe never come back. I love writing about beauty but only beauty forever just isn't something I can do. I lose focus and the will to write.
The simple answer to why I blog about everything is that I want to and it makes me happy. I don't care if people think I blog about it all for views or if some people don't like my geeky content. At the end of the day, this blog is about me and whatever I want to talk about.
I want to write about what I love and since making the decision to do it without letting anyone stopping me, I couldn't be happier. I write a new post every other day with more motivation than I ever had when I started in 2015!
So welcome to my happy place. Read some posts, get to know me. I write about myself and everything I love so there is probably something here for everyone.
Thank you for stopping by my little piece of the internet! I hope you enjoy your time here!
