Thanks to my girl Becky over at Strikeouts + Sprinkles for the Blogger Recognition Award nomination! If you’re not following her, you really should, so go do it now!

Rule 1. Write a post to show your award.

Boom, here ya go!

Rule 2. Acknowledge the blogger who nominated you.

Again, thanks Becky!

Rule 3. Give a brief story of why you started your blog.

I am keeping this very, very brief today!

I started Uniquely Cass almost 2 years ago now (wow time really does fly by). Writing has always been something I enjoyed. I previous had a blog that I started in university for fun but ultimately just deleted one day. I toyed with the idea of a new blog for a while & basically just one day decided that I would do it & give it another shot. Ultimately this has now become a safe space for me to share what I am passionate about or what’s going on in my life, things happening around me. Just kind of depends!

Rule 4. Give two pieces of advice to new bloggers.

1. Don’t give up. It might be tough at times to feel like writing, just don’t give up. Start those draft posts that won’t see the light of day, it will all works out in the end! Just keep writing
2. Don’t be afraid to make connections with other bloggers! Everyone is so friendly & supportive, you will not regret making some blogger friends!

Rule 5. Nominate 10 bloggers who deserve the award.

I have decided not to nominate anyone today, but if you have advice for new bloggers or want to share your blog story in the comments, I would love to read them & get to know you all more!
