This week I found my way to James Leighton’s recent blog post and discovered Knowember, a November blogging challenge from Robert Birming.
I was excited, it reminded me when people started blogging years ago and shared ideas for blog posts.
Knowember asks bloggers to publish a post to help readers know more about you.
A bit different from the About page you find on many blogs, Knowember asks bloggers to share a photo that represents themselves (your own photo, pet, hometown, something that’s meaningful) and to answer the same three questions in their post:
- Your name or nickname
- Where in the world you blog from
- What your blog is mostly about
Here are my responses.

Name
My name is Deborah.
Where in the World I Blog From
I blog from metro Detroit in southeast Michigan, United States.
What my Blog is Mostly About
Currently my blog is about gardening (vegetable and converting my lawn to native plants), birding, and anything I find interesting. I generally publish blog posts twice a week.
I’ve been publishing a photo of the week post since 2013.
From 2009 to 2022 (when I retired), I published posts several times a week about technology, web design and development, accessibility, and usability.
After participating in National Blog Posting Month in 2013, where bloggers published a daily post in November, I was inspired to spend the next two years publishing daily blog posts.
I like writing challenges and was glad to find Knowember!
