I am a blogger.

This seems like an obvious statement, but sometimes it still takes me by surprise when someone refers to me as a blogger. It feels like it should be capitalized and properly trademarked. Like “Michelle: Doll Blogger™”. Although, more accurately, it would be “Blythe Blogger” but that requires too many trademark icons to make it flow nicely. If you’re new here, this site recently (two days ago!) had a birthday and I couldn’t be happier. But the when I thought about it – I’d been doing this for three years and I’m still coming up with new material for every single week. It sometimes takes me longer than I care to admit to put together a post, and sometimes it just flows right out of me and onto the screen like it was nothing.

For the readers of this blog who are also bloggers, this post is for you! And if you’re not a blogger, but perhaps like to journal or just want to write a post somewhere (e.g. Flickr, Ipernity), this is also for you. These are, in short, my doll blogging prompts for you to use when stuck for an idea about what to blog about. Enjoy!
