I wish you good luck on the platform. Sometimes it works really well if you find a community where people share your interests. There are all kinds of communities and if you post in one you like your blog is likely to be noticed. One community I blog on a lot is #LMAC, which asks people to make a collage every week. There are prizes and usually the members support each other. You don't have to know anything about art. Just have fun.
Well, good luck!
I liked your story about learning martial arts. :)
