Last week Katelyn from Seersucker and Stripes tagged me in the post "confessions of a blogger". I haven't been participating in any tag awards/posts lately, however, I really liked the idea behind this tag post. For this tag post, the writer gives a little more info behind their blog and what inspires them to write. I thought this would be very fitting since I really haven't given a full overview of my inspiration and why I started blogging! So here it goes :)
When did you first start blogging?
I don't know the exact start date, but I know I started in June 2013!
Have you had any past online presence?
A few years ago I started an unsuccessful recipe tumblr account, but that is about it!
Why did you start a blog?
For the longest time I read blogs and had been thinking about creating my own; finally I did! When I created my blog I wanted my readers to be able to shop preppy fashion on a budget; even though my style may not be distinctly preppy, I still love to bring fashion on a budget to everyone :)
When did you become serious about starting a blog?
As I said, I thought about it for a while before I started it, but I definitely take my blog seriously. I have always been one of those people who takes every project as a "job", but blogging is the best job ever and I really hope I can do something great with it like Carly Heitlinger and Caitlin Coving!
What was your first post?
My first post was a little bit about myself and it was also my first "budget tip"!
What has been your biggest challenge in blogging?
So far, I haven't had too many challenges, but I definitely struggle with updating Twitter and Facebook.
What is the most rewarding thing about blogging?
Honestly, the connections I have made through this blog are amazing; I have so many friend and opportunities simply because I started blogging!
The most discouraging?
Throughout blogging I have learned that you can't please everyone, which is hard for me because I am definitely a "people pleaser"!
What is your lasting inspiration and motivation?
The things that inspire and motivate me every day are my blogging buddies/readers, little inspirational quotes, and my blogging idols. These three things always keep me motivated and inspired to write!
I hope this helps you learn a little more about Prep on a Budget :)
