After 18 years of blogging...

I started blogging after my first book 'Sacred Sabbath' was published, hence the url I've used for the past eighteen years: sacredsabbath.blogspot.com 😀

Over time I posted about my books, faith, adventures, and questions. Based upon input from readers I did quite a few blog series.

At some point, I wanted to change the web address (url) of my blog because 'sacredsabbath' didn't really accurately describe the variety of topics. 

I don't know whether any of you ever tried to change the url, but it means that everywhere you posted a link to your blog, that link would be broken.

Nah, didn't want to do that. 

I asked my followers on Instagram whether they read my blogs and I received positive responses. Stopping therefore is not an option. Then, the other day I read an article that said blogging is not dead, quite encouraging.

So, this week I decided to start a new blog where I will be posting regularly. That way I will get to keep the eighteen years of blogging that are behind me. It is still kind of a blanc page there (except for one article I posted earlier today), but I hope you decide to sign up for or follow the new blog.

➔Question: Have you ever been thinking of starting a new blog or do you already have different blogs?

    1. This might be the right time for something new then Cecelia, why not? I enjoy your writings and personally, I don't post as regular as I would love to but that hasn't stopped me.

    I want to start a second one. My current blog is just for me to unload whatever is spinning in my head. I'd love to have one just for things that are actually useful to people, but I need to prioritize my mental health.

    1. Well, there is a time for everything. There's healing in writing, for sure. You could write any thoughts as blog post without publishing them yet :) kind of building on something new and showing it when the time is right :)
