Blogust #20 - Signing Off 22:49 | 31-08-2026 | Monday Hello Dear Readers, I don't have much to say today, but August was such a whirlwind... and so was Blogust! I can't believe it's coming to an end, and I managed to stick to my reasonable goal. I am kind of looking forward to relaxing, now that the ticking blog clock is no longer going, but I am also going to miss the creativity I was able to churn out this month because of the challenge. I must say, I have never written this much, this consistently before, and I definitely never bothered putting it out into the world. I hope I continue making occasional posts in the upcoming months, even though they are likely to be very busy months. The Blogust award badge designs have been completed, and I am excited to share them, although I will probably only share them in a couple of days once blogust is properly over. I am thinking about having a few printed out in real life too, to hand to friends who were participating. I daresay I made it to Newbie, Electrum and Topical Island. If you put in effort into posting extra this month, don't hesitate to claim these awards yourself, even if you happen to fall a little short of the specified number. You deserve a pat on the back ( ◡̀_◡́) In any case, I will see you all soon (I hope) with the award designs. I wouldn't mind if anyone left me a message in my contact form about their experience of Blogust and any awards they have won at all... Love, Aeish <3
