CELEBRATING THE LITTLE THINGS TAG💐

I came across this book tag from Marta over at  The Book Mermaid . I'm sorry to admit I don't know where it originated from but if you do please let me know.

So let's get started...

WHO WAS YOUR VERY FIRST FOLLOWER?

I'm not sure if I can figure out who my first follower was it was such a long time ago but the first person to make a comment this year was from Tam May. 😀 You see... I send out my words into the world hoping they might help someone (usually that someone is me) but when someone actually listens, I'm delighted and lately I've extended my branches and have started receiving more listeners.  😎 I started doing Author interviews and blog tours which I'm still doing.  (Check out my interviews the last Friday of every month). 

Then I was introduced to #TheAtoZchallenge which helped me find a lot of bloggers and then I started doing random blog hops which is a way cool way to motivate me to read lots of blogs. 

WHAT WAS THE LAST MILESTONE YOU REACHED?

The latest milestone I reached was 816 followers.  😀Wow awesome!!!!! Lots of my followers are from twitter as well so check me out sometime @trincarl

WHAT WAS THE VERY FIRST POST YOU POSTED ON YOUR BLOG? SHARE IT WITH US, IF YOU CAN FIND OUT!

I knew when I first started posting my blog I wanted it to include some of my creative writing.  So my first post was a piece called Derrick.  It's about a Dancer who is a bit of a drinker and is pursuing his life's dream of creating a successful dance team.

WHO WAS YOUR MOST RECENT FOLLOWER? TAG THEM AND GIVE THEM A SHOUT!
