Y’all! This little blog that I started in 2016, unceremoniously dropped about a year later because I was too afraid to actually write anything, picked up and lovingly pieced back together in 2020 when I got over myself and decided to just write what I wanted and let the world read or not, and now post on three times a week (as consistently as I can) officially has 400 followers! (Plus a few more, which is just the cherry on top.)
I am so happy! How happy? This happy:

(Okay, to be fair, that photo was actually taken in the fall of last year, when Graham told me my hair looked good and to smile for the camera. He ought to have learned by now that I am mostly incapable of taking a good and/or serious picture in all but the most important circumstances.)
Anyway…
I am, in fact, very, very happy! And so, so grateful to each of you (who I will likely never meet in person but love nonetheless) who read my work and keep coming back for more. It is one of the great pleasures of my life to put words together in just a certain way and make something that didn’t exist before. It’s the closest thing to magic I can do, and I’m glad you’re along for the journey.
So, in conclusion:
THANK YOU! Really, truly, thank you. This is a wonderful community and I’m glad to be part of it.
Congratulations Katie!

It is fun to be part of blogging communities! Sometimes, paths cross and overlap, and sometimes it is a different group of folks depending on interest, and that is what makes it so fun!

Woooohoooo, that’s amazing – congratulations!!! I love that photo, too 😄
I’m glad you took up blogging again. I did the same thing, starting one blog then giving it up because I thought it wouldn’t go anywhere and nobody would read it. Then I tried again. Now we’re both here, and I’m very glad to have “met” you in the blogging world, Katie.
Here’s to the next 400 😉
