My Blogging Mojo is back

How are you, my dear friends of Read.cash? I hope your weekend is going great.

I'm celebrating my 6 month anniversary in Noise. And I'm impressed how the time has passed so fast. I came to Noise after signing up in Read.cash. However, I didn't start writing on here until some time later.

I had read about these platforms a few times on PublishOx but hadn't paid attention to them until I saw that I wouldn't have to write anything very long on Noise. My writing was pretty rusty after years of not blogging. And I think that today to celebrate that my Blogging Mojo is back and better than ever, I'll tell a little bit of my blogging history.

My beginnings - Blogger

I started blogging in 2004. And I created my first blog in Blogger. At that time, I had lost my job in a big IT services company.

The company was liquidated after the massive firing in Venezuela of the oil industry employees. Approximately 18,000 people were fired by the president at that time, Hugo Chavez. A historical fact that marked the current course of things in my country. And which I won't talk more about now because it isn't relevant for this article. I was unemployed and pregnant. So I couldn't look for a new job.

I started my blog, and I wrote it in Spanish. At that time, the community of Spanish speaking bloggers wasn't large. I didn't have a particular topic to write about. But I was very fond of reading travel and food blogs. My husband also had his blog, and he still has it, Blogacine. As a filmmaker, he wrote about movies. Then I eventually started writing another blog about things to do in Caracas on a platform named Bitacoras.com.

And I arrived at the Thematic blog networks

Sometime later, I met one of the creators of Xataka. A very successful technology blog in Spanish that is still online today. The creators of Xataka founded a theme blogging company Weblogs SL. They started looking for bloggers in the Spanish-speaking community. And that's how in 2005, I joined them and started writing for their food blog Directo al Paladar, which is still online.

I wrote there for about three years until my personal obligations made me quit. I was back to a full time job. My son was no longer a baby but a toddler who required much more of my attention. So I had to abandon Directo al paladar. And I hadn't written again except for the occasional time I had helped my husband keep his blog updated until I started microblogging at Noise.

I posted this orange Cosmos with a bee yesterday in Noise

My Blogging Mojo is back

When I started on Noise, I wasn't sure what I wanted to share. My beginnings were in those days when the platform was flooded with spam. And I was a little confused about the purpose of the platform. People were posting thousands of pictures taken from the internet. My only motivation at that time was to earn some BCH. Until I started to relate with other users, and Noise became a great escape route in these times of confinement.

But what really gave me back my mojo for blogging was Read.cash. My beginnings here weren't easy. At first, I didn't even know what I wanted to write about until I got serious about it. But then the robot ignored me for a long time. However, I didn't give up. And I think it was thanks to the support of some members of the community. I won't name them. But I know that if you read this, you know who you are. I will always be grateful. If it wasn't for their support to my articles, I probably would have given up. And you can always count on me whenever you need me.

Writing is now an important part of my routine. It makes me flow and helps me organize my thoughts. It helps me let off steam when I feel overwhelmed. And it has also been a great distraction that I enjoy a lot. Writing, reading, and interacting with everyone here at Read has been a great experience. And thanks to it, my blogging mojo is back.

If you made it this far, thank you for reading the story of my blogging life. If you are the first to read this, below you will find a little gift to celebrate my 6 month anniversary in Noise.

And you. How has been your blogging experience? If you want to share it in the comments, I would love to know how you got to write.

To my wonderful sponsors, thank you very much!

I started to read this right after you published it, but only finishing 3 days later! How bad am I? 🙈 Speaking of distractions prompt for this week!

I had a blog started back in 2014, where I wrote weekly as a part of scholarship requirement to document my journey for half a year. Then I refreshed it to orchid blog in 2017, but wasn’t too regular and finally I found read.cash. That’s the whole new ball game and I love it here. Community is amazing and I’m happy you’re part of it too.

Your blogging story is a clear message about having multiple streams of income. It really pays to have a side hustle especially an online one like this where we don't have a boss but we earn regularly. You may have lost a job but you found an amazing opportunity. I'm glad that you continue with this side hustle even if you found a new job. Multiple income streams are very helpful.

Glad to hear you got it back. I really have never stopped writing, but it is just something I have always done and always felt compelled to do. But certainly platforms worth writing for are sometimes very hard to find. Blogger was one that was simply for the passion of doing it because it never really made much money.

I did get trapped into shorter writing, though, for quite a while, writing on platforms like MyLot. So, read is quite refreshing to me since I can get back to the longer form writing that I really enjoy. Plus, the people here are great and the rewards are nice as well of course.

Glad to see that people like you can also benefit from a platform like this and noise in a country where it really does make a difference.

Onward and upward to you, and I looking forward to examining more of your returned mojo in future writings.

Felicidades por tu regreso y por tu aniversario.

Yo siempre había querido tener en un blog, ya que he pasado tantas cosas, que me gustaría dejarlas inmortalizada y como escribir un libro es mucho más complicado y necesitas tener más conocimiento que solo escribir palabras, pensaba que un blog serviría para comensar.

Te cuento que me registré aquí en read.cash y en Noise.cash el mismo día hace casi 3 meses por recomendación de una amiga, con intención de ayudarme económicamente.

Pero comencé a postear en Noise y a read.cash lo tenía a la espera de tener wifi.

Noise me ha servido para ir agarrando gusto por la escritura, por que más me gusta leer que escribir. Siento que me ha motivado a que pueda contar algo que sea de aliento, productivo, necesario o que le saque una sonrisa al lector.

Hace días empece por aquí y puedo decir que estos son mis comienzos con un Blog.

Tengo una niña de casi dos años, que me absorbe todo lo que pudiera ser mi tiempo libre y el que no también. Así que estaré publicando en cuanto pueda.

Ahora en este momento quiere apoderarse de mi teléfono mientras escribo estas líneas (me lleva loca) hago lo que puedo.

Ya con tu experiencia, le agarras el hilo más rápido.

Bueno espero que disfrutes del tiempo que puedas por aquí. Y también podrías contar anécdotas de tus vivencias con tu hija. Aquí a mucha gente le encanta leer sobre experiencias personales. Así que cuando no tengas tiempo para escribir sobre un tema en particular puedes contar tus experiencias personales. Saludos y gracias por pasarte por aquí.

Cuando le agarré la vuelta a esto, me enfocaremos en otro tipo de escritura.

Gracias por tu comentario.

Happy anniversary, when I grow up I want to be like you! Lol I read the title of the article with Austin Powers voice; my beginnings in Blogger were in Blogger but totally improvised, I started using it as a confessional I was leaving things there that were happening to me and I could not talk to anyone, like you I entered Noise for all this of the pandemic, to distract me and because at that time I was also studying a little about cryptos, and nothing better as winning some to experiment, and well look where the experiment is going. For many more years writing and doing great and thanks for supporting those of us who are just starting out.
