New blogger? Welcome! Share a link to your first post, say hello to some other new faces, and find your first few readers.
For other help:
If you’re not new and are looking for support or feedback, the Community Pool is the place for you!For technical questions, visit the WordPress.com Support Forums.
To learn more about blogging, take a Blogging U. course.
To find, copy, and paste your link:
Head to your blog’s home page — not your dashboard, your blog itself. Click on the title of your post to open the individual post.Highlight and copy the URL you see in your browser’s address bar, and paste the entire URL into a comment here.
Welcome to First Friday, a weekly open thread where any new blogger can share a link to his or her very first post with the larger WordPress.com community. To share your first post with us, copy and paste the link right into a comment here. If you’re not new, you can still be a part of First Fridays: visit a link or two, and leave the blogger a like or comment.
Please don’t use this as a space to share your first post…. that you published three years ago; ditto for simply sharing your latest post. Posts should have been published within the last month, and should be your first post. We’ll remove other posts to keep this space focused for new bloggers.
We ask that you help us keep this space focused by following a few additional guidelines:
- We encourage anyone who shares a link to visit a few other bloggers. New readers for all!
- When commenting, the third time is not the charm: don’t share the same link repeatedly, or in multiple First Friday threads. We’ll remove repeat posts.
- Link directly to your new post, rather than to your blog generally — it makes it that much easier for folks to like the post or leave you comments.
- Avoid repeated “Follow for a follow!” comments. (Tip: if you’re trying to build a readership, it’s much more effective to visit and comment on individual bloggers.)
- To keep from losing your place while you visit others’ blogs, right-click on links to open them in a new tab or window.
Currently blogless? You’re a click away from sharing your story.

For future reference, it makes it a lot easier for others to find and comment on your post if you include a link to a specific post, rather than your homepage. So, for example, for your “Why I Hated School” post, the link would be:
https://info3125.wordpress.com/2016/05/27/blog-post-title/
You just need to copy and paste the full URL from your browser and you’ll be all set.

Your home page makes it sound like there is not really a post called Why I Hate School. I think maybe you are supposed to put an excerpt of the post there. I didn’t realize it was anrticle until I saw the comments on First Friday. I really enjoyed both of your posts.

Hi!
Based off this: UPLIFT, MOTIVATE, EMPOWER, which I found on your blog, it seems as though you’d like to be an inspiration through your writing. Have you thought about writing about struggles, accomplishments, or even doing photography which would be an inspiration to others?
One thing I read that intrigued me was “the negative committee inside your head” and I couldn’t help but think of Kabbalah and the teachings regarding the Opponent. Just throwing that out there if you are interested in feedback for research topics to accompany your theme.
I think it would be really beneficial for you to spend a little time setting up your widgets and menus as well. You’re off to a great start! Keep it up and please keep sharing your posts. Best of luck. 🙂

Although I have blogged for sometime, I started a blog a couple days ago to purely focus on the daily prompts provided by The Daily Post. I’m really wanting to keep myself constantly writing and the prompts really help. I love the challenge of integrating the thoughts and events that happen to me in a day or week with the theme of the prompt.
I have enjoyed reading the other daily prompt posts. Does anyone know if it’s a community that regularly interacts with each other?
Here’s my post from yesterday’s theme of “Countless.”
Thanks for taking the time to read, and I look forward to checking out some new blogs.
