Super Fun Updates!

 I Know It's Not Christmas

Hi guys! First of all I want to say, yes, I know these last couple of posts (if you're an email subscriber) have been titled Giveaway: Win an AniKookie Christmas Cookie Pack, which I know is incorrect. This is the title of my last blog post, from November 2020. Let me explain! My blog interface has been updated and as a result, the email subscriber section has disappeared completely. This is the section I used to go into to change the title after writing a new post. So there's no way of me accessing this section and updating it, since Blogger has removed it.

Tech Issues Are Fun

Which brings me to another bit of blog housekeeping. My email subscription provider will no longer be hosting this service as of July this year. What does this mean for you, if you are an email subscriber? Well luckily you don't have to do anything. I, however, will be sourcing a new email subscription service, so basically next time you are emailed my latest blog post, it might look a little different. But rest assured, it's still me, with my Max The Unicorn blog posts. Hopefully I'll be able to fix the email subject title issue at the same time, too! Keep your fingers crossed for me!

Let's Get Personal

I've been pondering the direction of this blog and I've come to the realisation that I really just want this to be a personal blog. I don't want to have to write certain posts because I've been sent things from brands/PR that I need to feature or review, or been invited to an event or a movie premiere, etc. All those types of obligated work posts will feature on my food and beauty Instagram accounts.

In stark contrast to when I was blogging previously, I noticed that I actually really enjoyed writing my last blog post 5 Things I'm Loving. I loved being able to write about whatever I wanted without having to think about how to include a gifted product, or link to a site, or research a product, and have to advertise my post widely and link it up (because the stats mattered), and so on and so forth! Blogging started off as a hobby, but over the years it felt like it turned into a job. I know many fellow Bloggers will relate to this. Basically I want this to be fun again, because I do enjoy writing. I am definitely not going to complain about everything I've been sent for review over the years, I appreciate all the businesses and PR's I've worked with, and will continue to accept suitable collaborations on my Instagram accounts, just no longer on the blog.

So basically, I'll just be blogging about whatever takes my fancy from now on. I hope you stick around for the ride!

Thanks for reading, guys, I hope you enjoyed!
