iScriblr Turns One!

Hey everyone! I hope y’all are doing wonderful! Happy NOVEMBER 1st!

Guess what folks! iScriblr turns ONE! *woot woot*
Well, in all honesty my Blog Anniversary was on the 12th of October, but since I was super engrossed with the #octPoWriMo-2018 Challenge, it was better for me to be a little patient with the celebrations! *winks while pouring a glass of champagne*

THE JOURNEY

Oh, what a difference a year can make! From living a lackluster life, to having a website of my own – 2018 has been a wholesome year for me creatively. With 1,939 followers, 93,530 views, 32,890 visitors, 57,095 likes and 16,150 comments – this year has been the year of realizing dreams and working towards my goals with zeal and devotion. It’s been a year where I took the reigns of my future into my own hands and decided to pursue my visions and fancies.
From writing about my Personal Stories and taking part in Photo Challenges and Poetry Challenges to documenting my Travel Shenanigans – 2018 has been eventful, action-packed and memorable! Not forgetting my Freedom Of Expression Tag and the weekly Healthy Food Series – which made me more aware of my “blogging presence” giving me a chance to spread my wings and experiment.

Hard work, perseverance and patience in addition to my “will” to make changes and follow my dreams (without getting bogged down by little failures) has indeed made me a better person and a finer human being. It is surprising how things change in a year! From a “nobody” to “someone who refuses to give up” – 2018 has been a year for amendments and alterations. Its been a year of hope, anticipation and optimism. (Thank you 2018!)

Last but not the least, on reminiscing the time gone by, I would really like to thank each one of you (my fellow bloggers, my friends and my followers) for making my 2018 a huge “success story!” You all have been amazing to know and work with! The encouraging words and constant motivation from each one of you is priceless and much appreciated. *virtual hugs*

Before I sign off, I would like to extend my gratitude to these (below mentioned) extraordinary bloggers who have been my constant “pillars of support!” In all honesty, iScriblr wouldn’t have been what it is today without their consistent backing and inspiritment. Guys, go check out their amazing blogs and give them a follow. With bounteous optimistic and heartfelt musings, wondrous photography and delectable recipes on their blogs, these all are undeniably awesome and unique in their own special ways!

Yay.. Let’s have our own little BLOG PARTY! *clings the champagne glass*

“It doesn’t matter where you come from, what you have or don’t have, what you lack, or what you have too much of. But all you need to have is faith in God, an undying passion for what you do and what you choose to do in this life, and a relentless drive and the will to do whatever it takes to be successful in whatever you put your mind to.”
– Stephen Curry

WHAT NEXT

I wish I knew where this journey would take me and what will happen next in regards with “blogging”. But what I do know is that I am super excited and stoked about the “prospective” the coming year holds. Yes, I am so ready to learn more, to achieve more and to inspire more.

Here’s to scaling new heights and writing your own success story! Cheers!

Love,

      1. I do have a question for you, if you don’t mind… How did you gain so many followers so quickly? Did you ever boost any of your works? Just curious! I’m composing a book of my works now, first one, and my wife and I are very excited… Not that anyone will buy it, but it’s as exciting as having a website, you know? Ha

        Reply

        1. Not really.. All I did was participate in various “photography challenges” and “poetry challenges” on WP and (as a rule) post almost everyday.. Doing so gave me the exposure that my blog needed plus added to the visitor traction too!

          PS – Congratulations on your new book. I’m sure it’ll be a great one! 🙂
