RESPONSES TO QUESTIONS BY TANAKA:

1. What gave you the push to start blogging?

In my first year of Campus, I shared an IST (computer) class with a college mate and we struck conversation. We always sat next to each other throughout the Semester and shared conversations. One time, we started talking about God and I discovered she was a Messianic Jew. We ended up talking more of our shared beliefs in Jesus and she mentioned of a movie she watched (God’s Not Dead) and reviewed it on her blog. That time I didn’t even know about WordPress! She explained how blogging works and when I checked out her site, I was impressed and I knew that I should start blogging. And thanks to her, that’s how I discovered blogging.

2. Are you proud of the progress you have made so far, if not why?

To be honest, I never thought of it. For me when I started blogging it was more of a release than measurable goals to be achieved. But now that I have become more active than before I see that there are stats and numbers involved, lol. But discovering other bloggers and having that privilege to read their works is one of my greatest progress I would say I have made because I have grown, been encouraged, had a good laugh, empathised, been reinforced in my faith and discovered various perspectives. Regarding my posts, if it impacts just one person, that’s more than enough progress for me.

3. Is blogging your profession or hobby?

Definitely a hobby.

4. Where do you see yourself in the next five years?

Wow, probably globetrotting, mission work and running my business. But I may plan but God ultimately directs my steps, so I can never really be sure.

5. What advice would you give to someone who wants to start a blog to make money?

I don’t think I am qualified to answer that, lol. But I would say love what you do, master it, then the money will follow. But what do I know?

6. Where do most of your viewers and visits come from?

According to my stats the top 5 Countries are Kenya (my home Country), the United States, India, Nigeria and South Africa.

7. What is your posting frequency?

I don’t have a set calendar but mostly at least once a week.

8. Are you doing the most when it comes to fulfilling the demands of your niche?

For someone who believes there is always more to be done, I would be biased answering this.

9. How many friends have you made from blogging?

I have met awesome people and I have interacted with a handful as friends (you are definitely among them).

10. Do you ever regret any of your posts? If the answer is yes, why?

No, I have never regretted because most of my posts are faith-based and I never regret that aspect of me. In any case I hold it more tightly than anything else in life.
