As promised in a previous terrible post, I have here a list of amazing bloggers that show what blogging is and how it can be. When I tweeted recently asking blogger friends to give advice for 'newbies' in the blogging world, the most common reply was something along the lines of 'just be yourself, don't force anything, never compare your work or writing or interests to other bloggers' ...and yeah, that's f*cking right. 100%, you must always be you and never feel pressure to adhere to certain design stereotypes, content templates or posting schedules. They say you never get far when you're pretending, and that's true, but also if you do ...then is it really going to be any fun?! (A funny thing I found when compiling this list was that most of them are women, or mixed collectives...so I have since asked my male blogger pals if they ever feel an imbalance in the blogging world. May have to blog about it on my 'good' blog soon...)
the very bad Blog
Do not do anything this blog does. It's very bad. Don't do it.
