Right now is my WordPress anniversary. I first signed up on WordPress 9 years in the past and began writing critiques on a small weblog titled “Magi’s Indiekativ”. On the time, I used to be nonetheless at school, preparing for my A-Ranges, and because the man in our pal group with essentially the most video games owned and the largest ardour for indie video games, I simply wrote away, recommending titles and questioning how issues go, earlier than ultimately operating out of free time since A-levels have been a factor.
Then six years in the past (on July nineteenth, 2019, to be exact), Indiecator got here to reside. This very weblog right here has outlived my longest relationship and all kinds of different ardour tasks and hobbies. Again then, I regarded on-line for running a blog communities and randomly stumbled throughout the Blaugust discord server the place individuals have been making ready for an occasion referred to as “Blaugust” whereas I used to be making an attempt to get better from a stab wound in my hand.
The individuals on the Blaugust discord server have been a few of the most welcoming of us I’ve met in ages. They didn’t choose or something. They gave me nice recommendation that also influences me to this very day, and I made some unbelievable pals via them and bought to study a lot.
And now… it’s time for an additional 12 months of Blaugust, a yearly celebration of running a blog values that evokes new individuals to choose up the mantle and get into this glorious interest and that motivates veterans to mud off their blogs and see in the event that they wanna get again into it.
At its coronary heart, Blaugust has been about celebration of content material creation on a daily schedule. The unique problem was to put up each day for all of Blaugust or obtain 31 posts inside 31 days all through August and the week after. Newbies obtain a particular award, and people who handle to publish 5/15/25/31 posts obtain a particular reward.
12 Years of Blaugust
Often, it’s Belghast from Aggronaut who is usually organising the occasion, however he’s taking a well-deserved break from the blogosphere in the mean time as a consequence of private causes, which is why many alternative Blaugust veterans (together with me) have determined to not simply “assist” with the occasion however to choose up the organizer mantle and ensure to hold on the torch this 12 months!
As such,…
And effectively, you’re studying your put up, eh? Running a blog has grow to be one among my favorite previous occasions, an effective way for me to specific the machinations of my interior thoughts, a means for me to heal, and a solution to make nice pals and connect with others. I extremely advocate it.

Clearly, you don’t need to take part in it wholly for the problem. You don’t even must put up greater than as soon as. The true problem, truthfully, is to simply put up something and get began and become involved if that is smart. The one solution to lose is to not play, primarily, and as such, come hang around with us on the discord server, join with others, share what you’re engaged on, and uncover the world of running a blog!
