Ashley from LA Birdie’s Laugh at Life asked me to write a guest post.

Guest posting gets me nervous because it affects somebody else’s blog. It’s not on my space, in my little corner.

What if people on her blog don’t like what I have to say?
What if my guest post is mediocre?
What if I don’t inspire the target audience and instead, offend them?

Too many what if’s and not enough JUST TRY IT.

If I’ve learned anything from this journey, it’s to always just try it. New things are unfamiliar, foreign, unpredictable, but if you never try it, you will never know or experience it for yourself. It was time for me to branch out, try something new, and write my first guest post.

It was time to just try it.

It’s my voice. My thoughts. My feelings.

That’s enough for me. I write, guest post or not, for myself. If other people like it, great! If they don’t, well, I can accept that too.

That said, go check out my first guest post over at LA Birdie’s!
