Blank...turned blogger!

Blank...turned blogger. What does that mean? Well, for starter's it means everyone is becoming or trying to become a blogger. Not just any blogger, either. A well-reknowned successful blogger. What the word "blank" means is they were already well known successful whatever's and have decided to retire from their orignal careers and become a blogger. And, then there are us "little" known folks that are trying to make a name for ourselves. The competition is tough.

 I attempted becoming a blogger a handful of years ago. I quit a few months in. Why? Because of low self-esteem. Because of depression. Because of self-consciousness and fear. The things that run through my head, even right now while I write this are...is it stupid, are my grammer and punctuation correct, am I spelling words right? And, now to add to those thoughts is the fact I can't remember anything because of the treatment used to treat my depression. It causes memory loss, but I won't be depressed anymore. Right?!

 Some examples of this blogger success: Athena Calderone, former interior designer, her lifestyle blog
Eye-swoon. She was featured in Elle.com and magazine, August 2014 Volume XXIX Number 12 NO.348 as an unconventional hostess all month. Then, there is Lenore Skenazy, world's worst mom(award), her blog Free Range Kids has been featured on The Daily Show, The Today Show, Oprah.com and (just go visit her blog) http://www.freerangekids.com/media/.

 There are so many bloggers out there, yet I hear the blogger world is on a downslide. It seems to me that it is taking over the world. I could name off several reasons why I am trying blogging again, but I have a "friend" who says I project my feeling onto others' and that's not fair. I'm trying again because I'm passionate about writing and I have strong opinion's about a lot of things. I hope you'll find what I have to say interesting and follow me on my blogging journey. Blogging is something that can, also, be done while my 4 children run around the house beating each other up. I'm going to make up my own grammer and writing rules as I go, since I don't remember anything from college now. And, I will talk about how the treatments for severe depression caused my memory loss in another post.-K
