I’ve Accomplised my Goal! – Thank You Readers!!

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! To all of you!

I have met my goal; remember when I posted A new goal for a Muslim Latina blog will you help? I said that I wanted to reached 1,600 views by the end of the year? We did it!! Yes WE DID IT! If it wasn’t for your follows and coming back to read my blog over and over again I would not have reached this goal so soon.

So Thank You dear followers, if it wasn’t for your continued support I wouldn’t have made it this far. My new goal for the end of this year is 1,700 views. Insha’Allah we will get there together.

  

   

I will strive to keep giving you post that are interesting, informative or just entertaining. I hope that you keep me in your reader list for many more years to come! For all of you that just recently added me onto your reader list I Thank You also! You all have helped me grow even more.

Until Next Time,

My Evolution in Blogging and the Blogger that Helped Me

So everyone here or MOST of my follower come from or somehow know of OM. He is the man that I first followed on WP and I don’t regret it one bit. Yes he is a powerblogger in his short time on WP and a couple of months ago he had a bit of trouble with WP.

The reason I’m mentioning him is because I want to thank him. Why? Because reading his blog and taking a few pointers of his I have slowly come out of my shell. I started this blog at the end of 2013, so I have been a blogger on WP for 2 years almost 3. I used to blog on google and I had about 3 or 4 blogs through out those short 2 years.

I didn’t know how to get followers and I made some of the mistakes that OM suggested to NOT MAKE! Shocker for me and a real eye opener. I whined, complained, and when people commented I never responded. I never commented on other bloggers post and I was that silent angry blogger that OM talks about.

When I came to WP I was nervous, I had goals for this blog. For it to be a reflection of my life, thoughts, emotions and to start a platform for my book. I didn’t start writing immediately, instead I browsed bloggers and slowly started to follow bloggers. The first one I did follow was OM, why…. I DON’T KNOW?

He is hilarious, is very blunt, and he gives advice without trying to make himself look like the know it all person. Continually reading his post I say his post regarding power blogging and I got hooked. I knew I didn’t want to become a power blogger and that my priority wasn’t to gain followers QUICKLY. I wanted to gain followers that truly were interested in reading what I had to write about.

I had writers block for a long time, and one thing that WP forced me to do was write! Especially when OM whould state that this is one way to gain followers and get your blog out there. I can say that it worked for me. I am not on here everyday, nor do I post so many post as a power blogger. The post I do put on here are thought of and sometimes in my draft box for weeks until I get the guts to post it on here. 

I know I make other mistakes but in about 2 years I have gain followers and have broken out of my internet “shell”, I venture to new blogs and comment, I make sure I replay to comments on my blog as quickly as possible. If I am not going to be on here for awhile I put it on here because I believe in be courtesy. I don’t know if that is a mistake or not but it works for me.

I have been emotional on here and posted some personal information on what is going on with me life. Yes I used to do that in my old blogs but the difference is that I am not whining or complaining. I am putting the situation and reflecting on what it means to me and how I reacted. 

In the end This blog is my outlet for emotional turmoil, my creativity and to make connections with amazing people that I most likely would never have known. Below are a list of blogs that I love reading! They are inspirational, they have shown me and explained medical issues that I would never have known. 

These are just few of the “original” blogs I started to follow from the very begining or a couple of months in at WP.

– OM

– CCChanel

– Mum C Writes

– A Holistic Journey

This world on WP has open doors for me that google or my own “tactics” never worked. I like OM and I’m not saying he is perfect but he is one blogger that has helped me a lot. I know he never likes for people to say THANK YOU to him… Not sure if thats because he is humbled or just a man that sees no point of using those words…

Regardless THANK YOU OM for your blunt, opinionated ways because it helped me flourished in this amazing internet world!

My Writing, and some new news

I know my writing has not been on here as often. Right now I feel very emotional and when I’m emotional I write things that layer I might regret.

So right now I am using my journal (paper type) to write what I’m feeling. Maybe later on that will be used as an inspiration for my poetry or story.

Life right now for my husband is a roller coaster with work and other issues. He needs me and right now I have to be there even if it’s just to give him a hug.

I am his rock and he is mine, I’m sure all of you can understand that.

There is another platform that I went into and if you wish to follow it email me directly. I will be linking up this blog to that platform but I will also be writing and posting different type of things… I guess you can say it will be more personal than this..

Yeah I know I have put on here some personal articles but trust me it’s not as personal as this one will be.

I have Twitter and I have this, and these two platforms I want it to be focus on writing only. This other one will be featuring my writing of course but also more personal thoughts and maybe some pictures ( not if us though).

So for right now I will be posting not as often but not as like I’m used too. If you want to follow my “personal” platform please email me at lkhanfictionwriter@gmail.com and I will send you the link.. Maybe after a few months I’ll put the new link on my contact tab…

Until Next Time,

Would you follow a Blogger

When you find a good blog and they move to a different media platform would you follow?

Personally in the past I wouldn’t. Why? Simple because I was lazy and didn’t want to put the effort to have to join another media website and all that..

This time though I did. Most of you I’m sure know of OM and his very opinionated ways. He was the first blogger that I actually started to follow.

He also was the blogger where I literally ventured to put my blog on one of his meet and greet post. He is the first blogger that I actually dared to comment my own opinion.

Not only did he in a way “pop my virtual cherry” lol but what I liked about his blog is that he would give advice as to how to form a successful blog to get more readers.

I’m not wanting to be a power blogger as he is but I did like the fact that I learned the mistakes that I made in my precious “blog” lives. Without his help articles I have followers that I interact with often.

So yes if the blogger is worth it then I would follow them to their new web home. Once you find someone that not only is a talented writer but helped you get out of your shell further is worth joining a new media platform.

Now I just have to learn how to link this blog to that one and also will be creating new post on there that will not be on here. Who knows maybe my blog will grow a little bit more..

Until Next Time,

Writing dilemma, Thank You

So I am still only writing on my iPhone. I think that I’m getting a bit better at not messing up the writing..

I truly miss my iPad.. I need to get the car from hubby and go to the Apple Store, to see if they can fix it.

I haven’t posted as much because well I hate writing on the iPhone, but I can’t stop either.. I want my flow to continue..

I also want to thank all of you that follow me and for my new followers. I know that I am basically writing a mixture of my life, creative writing and all other topics. I guess my blog is becoming more of who I am then what I had originally intended.

I hope this will keep you all interested to keep reading. Thank you for the likes and few comments that I have received. They are greatly appreciated and welcomed!!

Until Next Time,

Thank you!!

I just wanted to tell all of my followers THANK YOU! I know I have said it before but to sign on here and see that I have new followers makes me all tingly inside. 😉

I can’t believe I have made it to 100 followers!

I am so humbled that people out in the digital world are willingly to take time to read my blog. I know I don’t have the best grammar, punctuation and all and it could be challenging to read. Still you all stick along with me.

I do hope that I am doing better.. Not only in bringing you all various types of topics that you like to read, but that my writing ( as mentioned above ) is getting better. I am trying my best to proofread my work before publishing so hopefully that has been helpful.

I know this is a short and sweet post but I just wanted to say to you all my old and new followers thank you for letting my humbled blog into your digital word.

Until Next Time,
LK
