Thank you so much for mentioning my post (The Dark Side of Blogging).
Blogging has been a wonderful journey for me and I have had a blast (started in April 2018). The one thing I didn’t realize was just how much time goes into putting out even a single piece of content.
Kudos to those who have been doing it long term.
Have a great day 🙂
Happy to share Xrayvsn!
