Hello lovelies!
I know it has been a while since I have posted but that is what today's post is all about. Firstly I'd like to say happy new year to you all and I hope your Christmas breaks were amazing!
I'm in a confused head space at the moment as to what to do with my blog. Most bloggers my age write about beauty and fashion and although I love to read these blogs and indulge in these topics myself, I feel as though I'm not interested in writing about them. I love to feel passionate when I'm writing and many times since my last post I have started to write about products I have bought etc. and I've just deleted them all because they all sound fake, as though it's not me who has written the piece.
I would love to write things about politics and history but I know the common audience for blogs wont read that content. This is why I'm so confused, I don't know whether to stop blogging or just to succumb to what will be popular but go against what I'm passionate about.
What has inspired these thoughts is that I watched a Michilak vlog recently where Stefan says that they make content that they would want to watch themselves and don't follow the usual youtube crowd. I want to do that with blogging but I don't know if I'll be laughed at, mocked or just be completely unsuccessful. For example when I broke away from blogging content before in my post 'let's talk about sex' people within my sixth form at the time criticized me as a writer and as a person. This stopped me writing for months and I don't want to experience it again.
I think the have conclusion that I will come to is to trial content that I want to write and see how it goes, if I fall flat on my face then at least I tried, right?
On a side note, thank you for all the views I have had recently! It really brightened my Christmas when I saw how many of you were reading my content!
Sorry for the rant but I had to get that off of my chest!
Love
