Episode 387:First Post Challenge

The lovely and talented author Erika has challenged me to participate in this new challenge. I am really pleased to take part in this as it takes me right back to my first post and it is interesting to see whether or not my blog has evolved.

The first thing I noticed, was that I had written about not feeling all that well. How embarrassing as I seem to write a few of those, wallowing in self-pity! I didn’t really know what I expected to get out of blogging, or where I would even go with it. In fact I didn’t even know if anyone would even read it!

I just wanted an escape from the awful depression that i was going through at the time, and my sister suggested that as I was quite a good raconteur, I might like to write things down as more of an escape really. So, here I am 9 months and many friends later!

Here are the rules:

  • Copy-paste, link, pingback or whatever way you want to, your first post.
  • State what type of post that was. E.G. Introduction, Story, Poem
  • Explain why that was your first post.
  • Nominate 5 other bloggers. Five because I know the pain of opening a lot of tabs at once.

Here is my first ever ‘episode.’
