I have been a Blogger for a long time but not an experienced blogger, I have always wanted to be one though even since i was hearing about Linda ikeji blog many of you from Nigeria will know her very well she was the popular blogger in Nigeria. That was actually doing well for herself infact she made money a lot of money from it that was what gave me the drive of becoming one someday. This drive of me did not just stop there it was when I began to hear aboutTundednuts many of you know him he is a celebrity blogger like Linda too.

My Encounter So Far
After,I saw this bloggers making wave, I was moved to go begin my own blogging. I started from Instagram that was were i got my first experience but it wasn't perfect but i was trying making post on Instagram I was also promoting people's page on Instagram a certain time. I gain a large number of popularity but I was not making money from posting much but I was making a little from selling account on Instagram it doesn't come often.
Then i though of making money more i do explore on the internet very well and i came across hive. Which i came to that i could Blog on the platform and make more money. I enrolled to hive and began to discover so many communities i was wowed and began to explore more on the community.
I found out that this is not the kind of blog i do so i have to go deeper and discover more communities, I came to a realization that this is a different kind of blogging an advanced one and had to drop my kind of blogging and join theirs, I also began to blend more with the communities.
And also begin to realize that i was not getting enough upvotes and engagement, I began to explore more until i found the best community @hive-learners and joined @newbies-hive this was were i came into and began to learn the real blogging, I use to be a Blogger of 100 to 200 words but #hivelearners thought me how to become a good blogger.
Infact they didn't just teach me to become a blogger only but a good writer who can write up to a 1,000 words without flopping. I write almost everyday of my life, I write in the house, restaurant, car even in the church.
I Blog With My Phone
I blog with my phone, I find it more comfortable, I can easily stay anywhere and write but if I start carrying PC that is kind of a stress even in my house i don't use PC it is so uncomfortable for me when trying to do a write up. I know most people will cherish the fact that PC will be comfortable for them not me.
I Don't Write Words Down
Maybe it is a gift but when writing anything be it an article, I don't write it anywhere it comes directly to my brain and I produce it as an idea that is how I do my writings, I know many people write down before putting it on any platform they want to showcase it myself i write directly.
How I Have Found Blogging To Be So Far
Well I have found it to be my source of income for now and I have found it to be my best teacher like i said earlier on my write up, I have been blogging but have always been doing it wrong till I joined a community that changed that for good, So I will say so far I have found blogging to be my source of joy too I enjoy blogging not just for the funds but for my passion.
