Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve loved to write.
Whether poetry, creative writing, short stories or essays, writing has always been something I was good at–and enjoyed. And 20-something years later, I started this little thing called a blog. A place where I have the freedom to write about any and every little thing I want–and no one, not even YOU, can stop me.
It’s certainly been an incredible year of learning. I’ll be the first to admit that I didn’t have a clue what I was doing or getting myself into when I first started this journey. I secured my URL, found a place to host the site and did my best to make it personal. But it still didn’t seem like me.
After a little more research, some help from my buddy John, lunch dates with Liz and inspirational Skype chats with Jamie, I had the extra push to make lauriesteiner.com truly my own.
I kept telling myself–I CAN DO THIS.
And well, 365 days later, this little website has undergone a few redesigns and much random babbling. For some people, writing is therapy. For others, it’s a way to document awkward moments, share funny stories, post pics of fabulous fashion or be an inspirational guide for those in the crazy career world.
For me, this place has been a written collection of my professional and personal life–a place that after one year, finally feels like home. Here, there aren’t any rules–just reality. And so far, I’ve loved every minute of being here.
I hope you’ve found the content to be interesting, helpful, insightful, funny and most of all, worthy of a few return visits every once in a while. I welcome your suggestions, comments and even your criticism. Know that your feedback helps me along this journey.
Cupcakes and cheer
So let’s raise our glasses and make a toast, blow out the candle and celebrate! Here’s to one hell-of-a year here at lauriesteiner.com.
And lastly, thank you. Thank you to my followers, readers, friends, family and fellow bloggers who have made this place what it is today. I truly hope you’ll join me in continuing the conversation for the next 365 days.
Let’s do something fabulous.
