So starting with the interview:

1. Introduce yourself and your blog.

Hello. :) I'm Nicole Rose (but you can call me Rosie). I am the teen blogger from Self Known, a writing/hobby blog that was first established back in November of 2012. On my site I post personal writings such as story bits and journal entries, helpful step-by-step instructions to help your blogging needs, and tips for engaging with your true and unique inner self. :)

I believe creative expression and self-knowledge are important things every person needs in order to live a fulfilling life. I own a web design shop and enjoy indulging myself with peanut butter cups as I work. I take enjoyment in word experimentation, dancing to crazy punk meets rock tunes and laughing so hard my stomach hurts.

2. What does your blog title mean and why do you think it's the perfect title for your blog?

My blog title, Self Known, stands for the journey I'm continuing to take as I get to get know myself. I think it's perfect for my blog, because as I go about my journey to self-love, expression and knowledge, I get the opportunity - through blogging - to help others on their journey as well.

3. Why did you started your blog? Were you inspired?

I was inspired by Liz from American Girl Fan to start my blog. Her content and community opened my eyes to the internet world, and showed me that it's possible to do anything with a blog.

4. What do you think are the pros and cons of blogging?

I think the cons to blogging are, if you want to be successful in it, you have to put a lot of time and effort into it. Which can be hard if you're a senior in a high school who already has so much to worry about. There's also the fact that some bloggers don't post unique content, because their eyes are only focused on the number of followers or page views they have (and yes, I used to be part of that, but I'm learning to turn away from it).

On the contrary, the pros are getting to connect with people due to your blog's reach. Creative self-expression is another pro. And you get to build a supportive community (or blogging family, as some would say) of readers who can encourage you while you encourage them. It's like a giant cycle of love.

5. What are your hobbies?

Reading, writing, doodling, designing/coding websites and belting out the lyrics to Adam Lambert songs when they come on Pandora. ;)

6. Do you think posting blog posts often is better than posting blog posts after long periods of time?

Yes, I think posting on your blog often is a lot better than posting after long periods of time. First, posting often grows your blog, because it doesn't keep your readers waiting. Second, when you post often, you give your readers another chance to share more of your fabulous content. And lastly, if shows your audience that you're capable of - which is creating unique and "devour-able" content on a regular basis.

7. Did you ever felt that you should stop blogging?



Oh yes. I've felt like stopping a lot, actually. Blogging can sometimes get a little discouraging, especially if you aren't receiving the results you want right away. But if you continue to push and build and grow - which takes some time - you will eventually meet your goals.

8. What's your main aim in blogging and your life?

I'd say my main aim for blogging is to grow my reader community significantly so I can reach more people. I'd also like to start earning money from blogging, so it can support me in the future.

My main aim for life is to grow. I want to become more. I want to seize all my days so that when I look back, I don't regret anything.

9. Any advice for the new and upcoming bloggers?

Always write unique content. Always. You have been gifted with an extravagant brain full of creative blog posts that are yours alone. Readers appreciate it when you write about things no one else addresses. It gets tiring seeing the same ol' same ol' going around. So break free of your unusual blogging cycle and write passionately (not because it attracts other humans to your work, but because doing what you love and loving what you do is fulfilling).
