Holy Hannah! I'm Back.
So I joined last year. I Love this site. I updated to premium and went through level one training. Well, to make a long story short, when I came to Niche I just could not decide.
I am an Artist and Photographer; I am also a mother of three soon to be four children. My husbands work makes our lives very hectic and almost impossible to get a stable routine in order.
It is essential to me that I picked a Niche that I am utterly passionate about. I wanted to do a lifestyle type of blog that emphasized my photography and photoshop skills by incorporating my children and the beauty of their dream world. Every time I went to progress further I just could not let myself, because it just did not feel right. It felt off. It felt wrong. There was so much I wanted to write about, and I just felt like I wasn't narrowing it down enough. I was in a mental block. I felt like I was on the cusp of what I wanted, but as I said before it just felt wrong. As a Photographer, I do not like showing any of my work unless I feel proud of it. Its easier to get my art out there because I am confident in my abilities. However, when it comes to writing, I am not. I get scared.
I am dyslexic, so writing and grammar have always been my very weak skill. I am so afraid of making a fool of myself that it was easy to put off my progression. Procrastination at its finest. So I invested in Grammarly, and now after almost a year of paying for my membership with little progress and little tweaks here and there to my websites, I am putting my foot down and saying no more. No more excuses.
Babies don't learn how to walk by douting themselves. There is a lot of falling, wobbling, and clumsiness. If I want to get better at writing and expressing myself through the art of words, I have to fall a few times by putting myself out there and being vulnerable.
Here's to new beginnings and the power of positivity.

Welcome back, Mattie.
My thoughts are that you have nothing to worry about with your writing. This post shows that you are a capable writer and with Grammarly by your side, you're off to a new start and lots of success along the way.
Wishing you all the best :)
Hi Mattie,
From someone also returning to give it another go, welcome back to WA and online success. For different reasons I took time out from my efforts both on WA and my website.
Here is to new beginnings and forward progress.
With very best wishes for your online success.
Kaz :-)

Hi Mattie,
Welcome back to WA. I too have left and returned, still doubt my writing to some extent but I'm starting to find my feet.
For me, the most important thing I needed to hear in my head was the sound of my own voice talking. I guess that's how I knew I found the right niche.
Once I was confident enough in my niche to hear my own voice explaining it to me, I was able just to write without too much planning.
Sounds a bit strange I know...
When I read your post, it sounds natural, confident and very honest and I think that is all you need.
I hope you found your voice also this time around.
Good luck and if I can help at all just ask.
Nick
