I Want To Know You

As much as my blog has grown over the years and my stats and engagement have increased this year, I still don’t feel like I have connected enough with you. Yes you, my readers and followers.

So I will like to use this opportunity to thank you for thinking Mariam’s World is a great blog and for reading my posts and sharing your thoughts. It really means a lot to me when I hear from you or when I see the WordPress notifiers on my phone.

Five years ago, I never thought I will be a writer because I didn’t even own a journal. I was desperately looking for a talent for so long and I thought I couldn’t do something amazing then this happened. I’ve been blogging for two years and five months now and I have never thought of quitting. I’ve had days I was uninspired and days I slacked but writing is my therapy and I love it A LOT.

I’m still surprised by the posts I write and how fast and easy it is for me to publish a post. Sometimes, I forget not everyone can do this and that I’m gifted to be a consistent blogger without a niche for over two years. That in itself is an achievement and even though I am still not where I wish to be, I will acknowledge that and bask in it.

This post is not supposed to be about me but I’ve done what I do best, share my thoughts lol. If you are reading this, I will like to know you better. I want to be able to connect with you on a deeper level; be a friend, solve your problems, provide answers to your questions, etc. The only way I can write posts you want to read is to hear from you so if it’s no bother, I will very much like you to answer the questions below.

Briefly introduce yourself
Tell me why you follow or read my blogs
Ask me the first question that comes to your mind
Suggest a blog post or a topic you will like me to write about
Share your Instagram handle, so we can connect

Have an amazing weekend.

  Thanks so much, it’s nice to know that my blog is considered as a source of inspiration to you. Writing a novel is in the plan hopefully the nearest future. I know I will have to put everything on hold to focus on it so help me God. Thanks for the topic suggestion.
  Have a great day!

3) What is your favorite place?
4) I want to read more girly posts. I noticed you could be very reserved except in poetry and I wish you could talk more in your lifestyle posts.

  Hi Golibe, thank you for enjoying my poems even though you don’t fancy poetry❤️
  My favourite place is the beach.
  Lol, you caught me. Using poetry to bare it all is actually delibrate but I will see if I can write more lifestyle posts. I particularly enjoy the travel, personal development and poetry more.
  I’ll add you on Instagram now.
  Have a good evening.

  Hi boo, thanks for commenting even though you didn’t need to. I’m glad you enjoy my posts and even look forward to my posts. That means a lot!
  To answer your question, by talents do you mean other people or other talents I possess? I really hope I get to visit you before the year runs out.
  I like your suggested post and I will include it on my to-do list.
  ❤❤❤
