Interviewing the Blogger Helen's Journey: 12 questions other bloggers wanted to ask!

This post is a great way to get to know me as the person behind the words in my blog posts and get a deeper knowledge of who I am personally, as well as a blogger. Here goes…

My 2020 started off with being nominated once again for ‘The Mystery Blogger Award’ which is an award I have been nominated for a few times in each year that I’ve been blogging (started in October 2017).

“I enjoy receiving these awards as it gives me a chance to open up and let my readers see more of the person I am away from my keypad.”

My 1st ‘MYSTERY BLOGGER AWARD’ Interview & ‘3 Things About Me’ for you to get to know me better

YAY! I have now officially been blogging for 8 weeks, so to be nominated for “THE MYSTERY BLOGGERS AWARD” – my 1st blogging award already is really touching, exciting and daunting all rolled together. 

“What is that?” I hear you asking (well I sure asked that myself being a newbie to Blog Awards). The creator of this award Okoto Enigma has written a blog “My Greatest Creation Yet: The Mystery Blogger Award” all about it and here is her explanation of the award:

“’Mystery Blogger Award’ is an award for amazing bloggers with ingenious posts. Their blog not only captivates; it inspires and motivates. They are one of the best out there, and they deserve every recognition they get. This award is also for bloggers who find fun and inspiration in blogging; and they do it with so much love and passion.”
