Why the girl who hates to write is starting a blog.

 

It’s funny how sometimes the thing you dread the most, is the thing you need to do in order to move forward. For me that thing is writing. Did you know that my last website had a blog? No, that’s because after 3 posts and almost a year later I hide it from public viewing. My thought was if I wasn’t going to post regularly then what was the point. Then came the coaches and the biz seminars that all said you need a blog if you want to be a brand… and so after many months of debating I decided, hey I’ll write a newsletter instead. That was 8 months ago and I just sent out my first newsletter last month.

See I hate writing, the very thought of sitting in front of my computer and trying to string a bunch of words together in the hopes that someone will read it actually gives me anxiety. So why am I starting a blog now? Correction, my 2^nd blog – well in my head I’m writing posts all the time. Whether I’m curating a pinterest board, working through a design for a client, or doing a day trip with my best girlfriends, I’m constantly viewing my world as a blog post. So it is after much consideration and a whole lot of courage (some of which may have been induced by late night girl talks with wine…) I’ve decided to give this blog thing another go.

So think of my blog like a picture book – I’m going to try and keep the writing part short and sweet!

And although I can’t promise how often I will be posting, I can promise that when I do post I will share with you a whole lot of beautiful designs that I hope will inspire you as much as they inspire me.
