My blogging journey started a few years back but I felt something was amiss. What was it? Did I not enjoy writing? Was it a lack of readers or supporters? Was it getting all monotonous?
Well, I always enjoyed writing and I still do but turns out what I was missing was a blogger community. And if you are a blogger, you know what I am talking about!
I came across ‘Blogchatter’ this July through Twitter and participated in their campaign- Half Marathon. I am so thankful to them because I met some great blogging buddies and all those wonderful people are now my very best blogging friends, and I have learned so much from them.
Undoubtedly, if you are a blogger finding “your kind of people” who share your passion and support you through everything is totally the best thing you can do.
I participated in the ‘My Friend Alexa’ campaign from Blogchatter and absolutely loved it. My blog and I gained so much from this campaign. New friends, new learning, and new experiences made me a better blogger today.
My third campaign is ‘Dailychatter’ in which I am participating this month and though it’s not as easy as I thought as writing every day is tough. Yes, it takes a lot of work, a lot of hours, and a lot of learning. But I am enjoying it.
Now I am participating in the ‘#Blogbuddy’ campaign and I am all excited to be a part of the rocking team #Blogtrotters. They are all awesome bloggers and I am sure we’ll get it all worked out and learn a lot along the way. Introducing to you our team-
*Chandni – The motivational leader
*Mithila- The cute blogger
*Shweta- The versatile blogger
*Simardeep- Writes direct dil se
*Garima- The mommy blogger
*Ajay- aka AK the quiet one
*Gauravi- Aka G the mysterious one
The description is from my interaction in the group from the last few days but all of them are awesome bloggers and I can’t wait to see where this blogging journey takes me with all these wonderful bloggers. I am so glad to find some super great blogging friends to support while I embark on this.
Thrilled to be a part of #BlogBuddy group #BlogTrotters

Motivational leader ?? Haha !! Deepa .. So far you are the much needed fresh energy in the team as someone of us are already carrying the baggage of old blogbuddy groups and their highs and lows .
I can understand what you mean when you say something was amiss . It started for me exactly like that too .. One random realisations and BlogChatter happened and life has changed . Not just blogging I see a lot of positivity and energy slipping in my life beyond blogging too . We have had such a fab start this ride will be awesome together 🙂

I thank you Deepa for the information about the blogger communities. I was desperately looking out for some as i am into blogging from recent past. As i read this piece, I found out that blogging journey too has its own ups and downs and I too am one among others out there.
