Ah, BlogHer.

 

I must say, I find you fascinating. Fascinating and completely intimidating. There are women here writing on actual, intelligent topics. Whereas my blog deals heavily in poop.

 

I love my blog. I struggle with ideas and topics. What I want my tone to be or what to post on which days.

 

But compared to BlogHer I am clearly a start-up compared to Proctor & Gamble. I come here for inspiration but often find myself intimidated. What is it about the idea that someone else is successful that makes me think that I cannot be? Is it that they have come so far and I can't believe I could do that much work? Or jsut that I think there are a limited number of spots for success and now I am aware another is occupied.

 

I'm not sure, frankly. I do know the blank page on BlogHer intimidates me much more than my little Blogspot page. But I love writing - so it's up to me to find some topics that I feel confident writing about in this space. I may have a long way to go but I can climb this mountain. I can also mix metaphors with the best of them.

 

So, watch out BlogHer.

BlogHer is probably one of the only places online where I haven't been trolled. Surprisingly, even my Super Troll of Years Gone By didn't follow me here. Crazier things have happened.

Keep on keeping on. :)

Rev. Run (I wish I lived in Run's House!) says to "Do your best and forget the rest." I love your blog and know that it will only get better. Just keep on working at it and you will surely see results.

I may've asked you this before, but do you use Google Analytics? It lets you know allll the stats for your blog, and it can be a real confidence booster!

I am sometimes intimidated by BlogHer because I feel like I won't be good enough. But I know that this is a community of LOVING, RESPECTFUL women who wouldn't dare try to hurt my feelings.

No trolls allowed at BlogHer!

Keep up the great work!
