One Year Anniversary with WP

Blog making, , , 66 Comments

I didn’t remember that but today is my Blog’s one-year Anniversary! Thanks WP for letting me know.

This is also my 400th post!

Thank you to the WP bloggers community and to WP staff, for making this year a very special one.

Blogging has been a pleasant discovery. I came here to share my thoughts and learn to write better. I followed excellent blogging, writing and photography courses, and learnt how to blog and to improve the looks and structure of my blog.

Totally out of my first script, I have also included photography in the blog, which became a bigger part of the blog than writing.

I met wonderful people, I made friends, I met them in person, and all of them showed me that blogging happens through connections and regular interactions.

Blogging is all about being part of an inspiring and encouraging community! Here we discover new ideas, learn about other cultures and ways of thinking, and in turn, expand our minds and knowledge, and learn more about ourselves, in a respectful environment.

Here I dare to experiment, and to share my learnings, being sure to get support and criticism, which helps me to grow and become a better blogger.

I love this community and I am proud to be a member of WP. Your support to my blog, through your visits and comments, make me want to excel and do more for you. The ever friendly Happy Engineers and editors also make this experience worthwhile.

There is no better place to be than at WP with you.

Heartfelt thanks to all of you for a wonderful year!

    1. Thank you, Sally. Even I was surprised. Joining all the courses led to publishing so many posts. But I just realized that I had exported posts from my first blog at Blogger to my new blog at WP. And I guess it is not excluding the guests’ posts.
      I am so happy you liked the image. I though it had to be this one.
      Cheers!
      Lucile

    1. Thanks Badfish! 400th was madness. It happened without awareness….joining all these courses and posting, plus what you do as you wish, plus guest posts, brought me here. I didn’t count it either until I got the message!!
