In all seriousness though, I blog because I love writing and am passionate about the topics I cover. I started my blog as a way to document my journey into the wilderness of motherhood, and that&#8217;s what I write about. I also cover crafting, beauty and my current wedding planning journey.\u00a0My blog is my very public diary and online scrapbook, so head on over if you enjoy being nosy!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><b>The most important issue in your blogosphere is\u2026 <\/b><\/span>Trying to be a fabulous mummy whilst maintaining a sense of self&#8230; and to continue to have fun writing! I started my blog for me and I have to remind myself of this sometimes. It&#8217;s very easy to get swept up in comparing your blog to others, especially in the parenting blogger world, as there are so many of us.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><b>What&#8217;s your favourite blog and why?<\/b><\/span><br \/> Gosh, I have so many blogs that I love \u2013 you should see my Bloglovin&#8217; feed! I would probably have to say <a href=\"http:\/\/www.chambrayandcurls.blogspot.co.uk\/\" title=\"Chambray and Curls\" target=\"_blank\">Chambray &amp; Curls<\/a>. I met Laura at the Brighton Blogger Meet back in April; her blog is just beautiful and every post is a pleasure to read.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><b>How often do you aim to post?<\/b><\/span><br \/> I aim to post every day \u2013 and usually do!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><b>How do you feel about guest posts?<\/b><\/span><br \/> I will always consider guest posts\u00a0as long as they are relevant to my blog. However, I don&#8217;t like to publish more than a couple each month as my blog is my personal blog for a reason, and I feel I would be cheating my readers to continuously post other people&#8217;s content.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><b>How does a good PR work with you?<\/b><\/span><br \/> It&#8217;s all about the personal touch with me, I hate feeling like I&#8217;m just one off a list. Start an email with my name, demonstrate you&#8217;ve actually read at least my \u2018About Us\u2019 section, and show an interest. I&#8217;ll be much more likely to work with you if you do.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><b><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\">What do PRs do that&#8217;s bad?<\/span><br \/><\/b>As I&#8217;ve said above, I hate feeling like a PR is just working down a list, or sending exactly the same email to 100 other bloggers (unless it&#8217;s a press release); my pet peeve is, \u2018Hi there\u2019.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><strong>Editorial information on Make, Do and Push!, Hannah Jeeves and thousands of other media outlets and contacts can be found in the<\/strong><\/span><strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vuelio.com\/uk\/products-and-services\/cisionpoint\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"CisionPoint\">CisionPoint<\/a>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vuelio.com\/uk\/products-and-services\/media-database\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Media Database\">Media Database<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><strong>.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Make, Do and Push! will be featured in this week\u2019s Media Updates.
