Dear Quiet

I don’t know yet what this blog will be, so I can’t give you a description, niche, or theme. I’m just going to write and hope that whatever I share reaches you in a meaningful way.

One of the reasons I’ve started this blog is to break out writer’s block. In time, I’ll know what I’d like to share (if I want to niche or keep this a diary).

I need to write lots of mediocre posts until I find my groove. I really just want to do my own thing, find my own voice ~ I’m sure you know how this feels.

Blogging can be so stressful these days. It’s recommended that you choose a niche and stick to it. Then make tons of pins for Pinterest and pin five times a day (who has time for that??). Then you have to connect all your socials, make high-quality posts full of keywords, be a guest on other blogs…

Just thinking about all that makes me cringe.

Listen, I just want to share a bit of my life, whatever that may be. I just want to let the words flow and steer me in the right direction. I want to try something new, and if it works, great! And since I’m doing my own thing, there’s no way it WON’T work, right? As long as I stay true to myself, it “works.” I measure my own success by my own standard. And my standard at this time is: write.

Write, don’t overthink.

That’s all I’m going to do.
