Hello there! I'm going to start off Blauging in easy mode, by answering the suggested introduction questions found in Nerd Girl's blog post.

What made you decide to do Blaugust this year, and what are your personal goals? - I have a nice little routine of weekly blog posting that I've developed but there are always little snippets of things that I think about sharing that never make it into the weekly blog post. I thought joining Blaugest would give me a chance to get all those little snippets and thoughts out of my head and into the wild. I am not going to set any particular goals.

I have about 15 or so topic ideas I've jotted down. If I don't get to all of them or if I post more, it's all good with me. I'm a somewhat contrary person and I find that setting a goal for myself will often result in me doing everything to myself to block me from that goal. Why am I like this? Who knows.

Did you start preparing for Blaugust before the August 1st start date? - Aside from jotting down topic ideas, no. I've joined the Discord and some people have been talking about how they have already stockpiled blog posts! The forward thinking, planning and execution of having not just one but several blog posts at the ready absolutely astounds me because that's not something I could ever manage. I'm full of great ideas but the chasm to leap between having the idea and executing the idea is usually a vast and impossible one.

Do you remember how you heard about Blaugust for the first time? - I'm pretty sure I first heard about it a couple years ago through one of the peeps I follow on Neocities, Aywren.

Well, that's the end of the intro questions that pertain to me! Thanks so much for stopping by and, if RSS feeds are your thing, I have one! The link is on the blog's home page.
