When I moved into residence for my first year of university, they said, “the walls don’t make the experience, the people do.” They were right. I think if you apply that sentiment anywhere in life, it holds true.
People need people.
When it comes to WordPress, the blog layouts don’t make the experience, the bloggers do.
With that in mind, I’d like to welcome you to the 3rd annual Share Your Blog event. Please help yourself to refreshments at the back. No one leaves until all the food is gone. I don’t make the rules.
The purpose of this event is to grow your community, by meeting new bloggers and discovering new blogs. Maybe it’s just me, but having this event at the beginning of the year reinvigorates my desire to write.
It creates an energy between bloggers and I feel like we’re at our best when we’re feeding off one another. It’s a domino effect. At least, that’s my theory as to why a lot of us get writer’s block at the same time.
My other theory is that August is a boring month that lulls our inspiration to sleep.
Anyway, to participate in this blog sharing event, all I’m asking you to do is the following:
1. Introduce yourself in the comments section below
2. Tell us the name of your blog and what you write about
3. Share a link to your blog (home page, most recent post, or a post you like)
Feel free to say as much, or as little, as you want.
And then throughout the day, or coming days, come back to this post and check out the other comments. Say hi to the people you don’t know. Mingle, I guess. If you remember how to do that.
If you so choose, feel free to spread the word of this event on your blog.
I think we all have our own blogging community, so why not bring them all together? This isn’t one of those gatherings we must keep to 10 people or less. I checked.
Thank you in advance for your participation!
If you need me, I’ll be wandering around, occasionally frequently glancing at the kitchen doors to see when new items are being brought out.
Have fun and happy sharing!
Love this idea! Hi I’m Wayne and I’m a travel blogger living in Sydney, Australia. I share mostly local travel which is handy considering we can’t travel very far at the moment. Would love to meet some other bloggers as I’m still pretty novice. Thanks everyone. My blog can be found here https://wrookieschu.com. Feel free to have a look and I will do the same for yours 🤗

Hello everyone. I’m Cathy and you can find my blog here: https://micqu.org. I write poetry (micro-poetry), short stories and everything else that comes to my mind. Right now, I am also posting songs daily. Lots of eclectic music – I am a bit of a music addict, to be honest. What else? Oh, I am a published author. I published four books so far, a fifth is in the making. Take a look around and leave a message, so that I can return the favour. I am a curious person. xx

Greetings, everyone! My name is Bill, and my blog is A Silly Place — https://billswritingplace.wordpress.com
I write about whatever strikes my fancy, mostly tales from my life. For example, last month my posts included a song in my exercise class giving me a flashback to high school dances, how I never thought much about borders before until crossing them actually meant something, remembering that people actually lived normal lives for 2 1/2 months last year and a group project where I joined a bunch of my blogging buddies in writing about actual good things that happened in our lives in 2020.
As long as the writer’s block isn’t too bad, I post a couple times a week, plus a recap on Sundays of whatever I wrote and other folks’ blog posts and tweets that I liked.

Hi Paul and hi all! I think this is my third year to join Paul’s annual share-your-blog activity. My name is George and my blog can be found at https://gsilvosatrekpix.com.
My hobby is photography and I blog about my photographs. I usually take photographs whenever we go places or attend special occasions. The resulting blog comes out as a narrative of where I’ve been or what I’ve done.
Check out my blog, leave a note, and I will return the favor by checking out your blog too.
Paul, thanks for doing this annual activity!

Hello everyone!
Let me just start with a huge thank you to Paul for this annual ‘let’s make friends’ it’s always so nice to get to know other bloggers!
My name is Cass, & I kind of write about whatever comes to mind. My adulting attempts, life in general, what books i’ve been reading, sometimes sports & the bachelor franchise, trips i’ve been on – honestly anything that actually sounds okay once it’s written is fair game really.

Feel free to stop on by & say hello, I’ll be sure to return the favour on yours 🙃
Thank you again Paul for the opportunity to meet other bloggers!

Pingback: 100 Random Facts About Me 4.0 | The Confusing Middle
It’s that time of year again already?! Always a great idea, Paul!
Hi, my name is Aaron, and I am a blogger. My blog is called The Confusing Middle which is a reference to the confusion that comes with living life. I try to post something every day and actually succeeded in 2020. You’ve got a lot to catch up on if you’re new, so get crackin’. I don’t have a niche that I fit into where blogging is concerned. I write about TV shows I’ve watched. I write about movies I’ve seen. I geek out about the things I geek out about. I dabble in short fiction from time to time. I post some odd observations I’ve had about life in general. I’m kind of all over the place, but I try to make it fun. I’ve had this blog on WordPress since 2015, but I was blogging elsewhere for 10 years before that. Stop on by and check out my latest post which is an update to my 100 Random Facts About Me…

Hey everyone!
What I love about WordPress and it’s community of bloggers, is that I met my best friend, my soulmate, my rock, in one of these community pool things. So I hope to make some friends now too (no pressure!) I am Tanushka, and my blog is called That desperate friend. Yes it sounds very cringe, but it was started by a much more emo 15 year old me, and I am attached to it. I mostly write poems, sometimes stream of thoughts type essays, and it is mostly what you expect from a teenager. It’s about me dealing with mah feelz, stating opinions, trying out poetry prompts, writing 2000 word rants about inconsequential topics. But I like to think that I’m funny, and that my end note under my poems are witty. So feel free to check it out, and let’s be friends.

Among heartbreak, family, friends, work, travels, education, and just every day random things that happen in my life- I’ll try to make the best of it in my funny or emotional writing.
