Hey y’all, we’re doubling up on posts today! (Because another ‘episode’ of High School Madness is going to be released later as well…)

So, I totally forgot about this until just a few days ago… but, it’s my blog’s birthday today!

Woo!

Now, let’s reflect on how this past year has been. For the blog.

God, I can’t even believe I’m still at this thing a year later… but, for memory lane’s sake, here’s what my very first post looked like. Surprisingly… not much different than how my posts look now, haha. But, still. I actually had forgotten why I started this blog in the first place… but, now that I reread that, I can see that I didn’t really even have a reason! Oh, how some things just work out…

My tags have evolved over the years… months. I know it’s kind of hidden away, but here’s where all the dead ones go. Haha. Kind of an Easter egg for my site… but not so much now that I’ve mentioned it. I guess I’ll have to make another one for everyone to figure out and find instead now…

I’ve published two… and a half books since I’ve been here! Cartoon, Emma Lenford… and my Wattpad poetry collection, Holding onto Stars. (That one’s the half, haha.)

Hm, what else…

I started vlogging not too much later than blogging! My first vlog, looking back… God, it was awful. I had no idea what I was doing and I was so awkward with the camera. But, there’s a first for everything, and I’m pretty sure anyone can tell now that I’m 100% better with it!

And, um…

We’ve had some fun posts here, too. A few of my favorites that probably didn’t get much attention because I had 0 followers for so long at first would be…

Every Writer’s Google Search History 

“It’s about time she died anyway…” (And part 2 and part 3.)

Coke or Pepsi???

Things I love

And, my top fave… (for I don’t know what reason…)

10 Writer-Relatable Jane the Virgin Moments 

And, you know, I’ve actually had the same blog signature since the beginning. I kind of thought I would change that after a week or two because I’m always so indecisive… but, I didn’t!

And it’s always been this and it always (probably) will be.
