Immediately is my WordPress anniversary. I first signed up on WordPress 9 years in the past and began writing evaluations on a small weblog titled “Magi’s Indiekativ”. On the time, I used to be nonetheless in class, preparing for my A-Ranges, and because the man in our buddy group with essentially the most video games owned and the largest ardour for indie video games, I simply wrote away, recommending titles and questioning how issues go, earlier than finally operating out of free time since A-levels had been a factor.
Then six years in the past (on July nineteenth, 2019, to be exact), Indiecator got here to reside. This very weblog right here has outlived my longest relationship and all kinds of different ardour tasks and hobbies. Again then, I seemed on-line for running a blog communities and randomly stumbled throughout the Blaugust discord server the place folks had been getting ready for an occasion referred to as “Blaugust” whereas I used to be making an attempt to recuperate from a stab wound in my hand.
The folks on the Blaugust discord server had been a number of the most welcoming of us I’ve met in ages. They didn’t choose or something. They gave me nice recommendation that also influences me to this very day, and I made some unbelievable pals by way of them and received to study a lot.
And now… it’s time for one more yr of Blaugust, a yearly celebration of running a blog values that conjures up new folks to choose up the mantle and get into this excellent passion and that motivates veterans to mud off their blogs and see in the event that they wanna get again into it.
At its coronary heart, Blaugust has been about celebration of content material creation on an everyday schedule. The unique problem was to publish each day for all of Blaugust or obtain 31 posts inside 31 days all through August and the week after. Newbies obtain a particular award, and folk who handle to publish 5/15/25/31 posts obtain a particular reward.
12 Years of Blaugust
Often, it’s Belghast from Aggronaut who is often organising the occasion, however he’s taking a well-deserved break from the blogosphere in the meanwhile attributable to private causes, which is why many alternative Blaugust veterans (together with me) have determined to not simply “assist” with the occasion however to choose up the organizer mantle and ensure to hold on the torch this yr!
As such,…
And properly, you’re studying your publish, eh? Running a blog has turn out to be considered one of my favorite previous occasions, a good way for me to precise the machinations of my internal thoughts, a means for me to heal, and a technique to make nice pals and hook up with others. I extremely suggest it.
Additionally, be a part of our Discord server should you haven’t but.
Clearly, you don’t must take part in it wholly for the problem. You don’t even must publish greater than as soon as. The actual problem, actually, is to only publish something and get began and become involved if that is sensible. The one technique to lose is to not play, basically, and as such, come hang around with us on the discord server, join with others, share what you’re engaged on, and uncover the world of running a blog!
There are various of us right here who will weblog about video video games however you don’t have to do this. We’ve received e-book bloggers, folks writing about sports activities, about their backyard, meals, journey, and extra. There are folks sharing their ideas on happenings on this planet, and others expressing their opinions on different issues. There are a variety of completely different sorts of blogs, and you’ll simply share no matter you want in any size, form or type on the weblog. So long as you wrote it, that’s all that issues!
