THE QUESTIONS

1. What made you decide to start blogging?

Well, my 6th grade English teacher had a blog, and I wanted to make one. :) So, I did, but I didn't post on it very much.  Then, in October 2010, my sister and I decided to make an American Girl blog. :) And after that, I made my now main blog, The Writings of Hannah. :)
