Hi, folks. Is it bad to say I’m nervous? Ha! Here’s the Plan.

Obviously, this is my first post EVER. This will not be a masterpiece; maybe not even worth remembering by the end of the year, but I have to start somewhere. I needed to form a plan, and let you guys in what on what exactly I’m planning to share.

So. What To Expect?

It’s both a question to be answered for you guys (the audience) and me. I will say, I wrote a very brief summary about expectations in the About page if you’d like to check that out; but for my own sake, I need to put down clearly defined expectations..

Can I put things in a list? Is that going to bother anybody? I’m going to do it anyway.

One: This is a blog.

Two: This is a blog that also promotes a connected business.

Three: This blog (and store) promotes themes centered around women.

I mean ALL women. However you identify, it does not matter to me. I’m being very honest and straightforward because it’s important and it’s a very personal part of my life (being able to express myself), so it’s going to be a big theme on this blog and in my store.

Four: Privacy is important to me. I love having conversations and I hope to start an email list, get responses from people, chat online, etc. But, I don’t use my real name for my online “persona”. You can call me Kow, Kowalski, really whatever you want.

I will list some things about me, though! For instance:

• I am a very early twenty-something in college in the Midwest. (No, nothing I am studying relates to anything about this blog or my store. Yes, I very much am struggling with finishing school. This may be a big topic on this blog - it really depends on how next semester goes, if I even get that far without dropping out this summer.)

• I’m obsessed with poetry, and I am in the process of publishing some books.

• I list song recommendations on every post (usually relating to the topic), because everybody thinks they have the best playlist in the world, except they’re all wrong and I have the best one, obviously lol. (I’ll take recommendations, though!)

• I have two cats. (I might share some pictures later on!)

• I struggle with ADHD and anxiety, and depression runs in my family. (This isn’t to say I will be a therapist for anybody, but I know so many people out there feel the same struggle. If sharing my experiences can help just one person, then that’s something I want to write about on this blog.)

• I’m a vegetarian. (It’s not necessarily on my list to share a ton of recipes; but if I do, don’t be surprised!)

• I’m queer. :)

That’s me! In like half a nutshell or something. Everything I listed is probably a topic of sorts you can expect to read about (some definitely more than others), and that’s as much of a plan I can share right now. If you’re looking for “qualifications”, well - I’m a person who’s gone through some stuff. That’s really the only proof I have for being able to write about anything. I won’t float everybody’s boat, but I truly appreciate you taking the time to read this post, search my blog, visit my store; whatever you did to land here. It’s important, and it matters.

By the time this is published, I should have a couple posts talking about real things (lol) as well. Check them out if you can!
