Summer Blues _
It is begginning of summer here in New Zealand and we are well into Christmas shopping rush. I feel like my training here at WA is going too slow and I am, sometimes, paralised by fear to not mess up when making additions or/and changes to my website.
I am pretty confident in handling the computer but new as a baby in website creation and I realise that the training maybe does not cover all the little touches that make a website not just good but great ;) (have I just copied Trump?).
I am wondering if most newbies at WA feel the same or is just my Summer Blues ^_^?
The community here at WA is the most helpful when anybody needs help but in the end we still have to do the work by ourselves and pass over our fears.
For me another big fear is writing posts. I am always worried that my grammer and writing style is not good enough to be published and I struggle with finding writing ideas, concepts and layout in the first place.
So this post is just a expression of my latest thoughts and an encouragement for all the newbies out there who feel the same.
Or maybe is just me and my Summe Blues ^_^?
Sunny days,
Daniela

Hi Daniela, in the beginning it can be a little overwhelming, and we all probably lacked the confidence to jump on in.
The best antidote is to just start doing stuff. We all make the odd mistake, I haven't come across anyone who has broken the internet by trying stuff.
One of the really cool things about WA is that we have a wonderful community that will stop to answer any questions we have.
Added to this is site support, which handles technical issues.
So we are covered, we can get on and create, safe in the knowledge that we have all bases covered.
Have an awesome, and creative Kiwi summer.
You will do just fine.

We all battle with doing things right at the start, be know that it will all come together for you in the long term.
Be consistent and you will be fine.

Have no worry about your writing. This was very good. The more you write the easier it will become. I'm not just saying something that is the same o same o. It is the truth. I used to write a lot when I was younger, then I stopped because I was busy taking care of my ill husband and just didn't have the energy I needed to write, care for him and our 14 year old son. I joined WA free membership in August 2019 and went premium in September. I hadn't written anything but the about me post on my website until October and I wrote my first post here. Then about a week later I published my first blog on my website and it has been getting easier ever since. Every post gets a little more easy and more clear and concise in content. Just hang in there and write. You'll be surprised as easy it will become.
