Nominated For The Blogger Recognition Award

I was nominated by Disabled Disney for the Blogger Recognition Award.

Here are the rules for this award:

Thank the nominator, and publish a post on your blog about receiving the Blogger Recognition Award.

Make sure to provide a link to the nominator’s blog in your post.

Give a brief story of how your blog started.

Give two pieces of advice to new bloggers. Nominate 10-15 other bloggers for this award, and inform them of their nomination. (I know I only did five. 😊)

Thank you, Melissa, for this award.

Why I started my blog: I started my blog almost ten years ago (in September of 2010) as part of a college course that I had to take for my journalism degree. I enjoyed sharing my life’s journey, including how I deal with my disabilities, that I couldn’t stop writing. Now I want to make blogging part of my career.

Two pieces of advice to new bloggers.

1. Network with other bloggers. It is a great way to get ideas for posts and for other resources.
2. Don’t give up, keep writing. Over the past nine to ten years of writing I didn’t stop writing. Even if it was just a small post to say hello, I reached out to my audience.

I nominate the following five bloggers for this award:

1. Matt Harris
2. Jessica Woods
3. VI Blind Resources
4. Joy Ross
5. Sam with the Blind Life
