What I plan this platform for

My Blogspot page http://michiru-maeda.blogspot.com

I had been blogging since the days of Blogspot. My contents were about how I navigate through life as an adolescent at that time. I gradually stopped posting contents as instant messaging apps were on the rise. I didn’t need to write lengthy paragraph to tell my stories. Those apps enables me to share my stories to my friends directly as it happens. The experience is more interactive than blogging.

Writing down strategies on the makeshift study desk in the living room

Now why am I back writing again? My friends have moved on with their lives. We still keep in touch. But as we get older, our priorities change. We still communicate but less frequently. My blogspot page is still up. But the platform isn’t relevant anymore. My medium page had been blank since I signed up some time ago. Medium is social journalism platform with a mixture of professionals and amateurs on board. So writing only tidbits about my life wouldn’t be a good use of this platform.

I am using this platform to find connections, share life experiences, document strategies in my entrepreneurial endeavors, learn how to infuse my writing with keyword optimization and probably will write graphic design related tutorials. Recently, just adopted a cat. If you’re a cat person, this page might be for you.
