New Year, New Blog

 I didn't think I would ever see myself create a Blogger account, but here we are! Although Tumblr has been my preferred blogging site for roughly 15 years (on and off), it more or less feels like a casual hangout where I can shoot the breeze with my online friends about music and other things. Substack felt somewhat daunting because of the long-form aspect, and feeling like I have to be say something poignant. At least that's how I felt lurking through the site for the past couple of years. Seeing Lilly Ashton post on her Blogger account helped me feel more comfortable with giving this place a shot. 

So... yeah! My name's Maddie, I'm a 30-something woman living in the Midwest trying to make something out of my life beyond work. This blog will be more or less personal. I also want to develop my voice/writing style and feel more comfortable with expressing myself, so this blog might be all over the place. But I'm excited to use this more!
