HOW MY BLOG GOT STARTED:

I started out blogging about my hobbies: reading, cooking, sewing, French, and so on. My blog was called An Accomplished Young Lady. But I soon ran out of ideas for posts so I decided on a new name and a new look and a new, more general purpose for my blog. It's now called Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam (for the greater glory of God) because that's what I want its purpose to be and it also means I can blog about everything I love:) Especially as my tastes and hobbies have changed a bit over the years. Anyways.

ADVICE FOR NEW BLOGGERS:

Don't feel as though you have to write super long posts but don't make them too short either. Pictures make everything better too:-) Blog about what you love and try to reply to as many comments as you can. Don't give up on your blog. Make it a pretty and inviting space you love to be in. Or on. You know what I mean:-)
