This year's blogging highlight for me was launch of my new blog in my own domain this September dedicated completely to science fiction, fantasy and history fiction - Have posted without a break for 18 successive Tuesdays.

Highlights of my old blog - survival - With my exit from contests, stopped getting random topics to write on. With more of my interest shifting towards serious fiction writing, the blog looked like dying away. But kept chugging along thanks to some book reviews, blog reviews and blog organization post. From October mid, the regular blog is also alive and kicking again - with 9 contest posts as well within the last 2 months of the year.

Kudos to your dedication, TF. To post high quality fiction back to back for 18 successive weeks is a lot of hard work. And hard work always pays. I will add something more: From writing blogs to writing books, you are now making giant leaps with your talent, isn't it? Hearty congrats on your new publication, TF and here's to many more such books and recognitions in 2014! Your talent is incedibly awesome, keep at it. Smile

Not to mention your highly popular review offer which I wanted to request for but ran right away seeing the long queue Tongue out

Thanks, Arti. You are always good at saying the nicest things and motivating people. 

Thanks Nebula. Reviews are a tough job. This year I hope to clear off the queue and take one at a time.

Well, I am still not a year old in the blogging world and every moment has been special to me. However, the most special moment was the one when one person messaged me specially to tell me how much she loves the way I write and how much she looks forward to reading my pieces. I hope I don't disappoint her. Ever. Smile

Wow! That is something truly special. I can imagine that feeling... we bloggers thrive so much on inspiration and that moment must have been such a great motivatioval booster for you. Congrats, Pankti, I hope you get many more messages like these in 2014 and wish you the best for your blogging journey ahead. Smile

Another highlight as I was reflecting over who were my best friends at different points in life - This year's best friends are all from blog-o-sphere. Blog-o-sphere now seems to mean more to me than office and home neighbourhood.

My best blogging moment this year has been the number of posts I was able to publish. I never posted more than 10 in a year, but in 2013 I managed to post more than 20, thanks in large part to IndiBlogger for the audience it has provided for my blog and also for the contests which helped me increase my post count.

Arti

Please pardon my ignorance, but what do you blog about and since how long have you been blogging, Narsimha? I am so glad you could speed up your posting frequency in 2013. :) I wish you greater acceleration for the year, 2014. Keep at it, I am sure you can do it!

I do not have a niche in blogging. I write about books, Cricket, fiction and some personal posts. Though I have been blogging since 2006, I deleted most of them and my latest blog was from 2012 May.

I am in the blogging world on and off for approximately 4 years. Couldn't give up , but din't know how to survive either. But I follow a tonne of blogs and regularly keep reading the posts. It just this year that I took up blogging seriously. And one of my friend told me that I inspire him to write and he started a blog! And he asked me to read through his post before publishing. It might be a meagre thing to most blogging giants here, but to Me..it was such a valuable moment :) Felt very very happy Smile

Shameem, it surely is a great moment because it simply signifies how much of your opinion as a writer matter to that person. Smile Congrats for that Smile

I enjoyed a lot writing on various topics (as usual), but 2013 saw a huge drop in traffic inspite of regular posting. I just don't understand the rules of big G and stopped analyzing it! I am now writing more for myself and I think that's the best thing that happened, probably due to the drop in traffic. I have lined up some exciting things for my blog in 2014 and I hope things will be different this year. 

BTW, what's your best moment for 2013, Arti?

I would say, a relatively new blog with 30k footprints in a span of 5-6 months of active blogging would be a huge take-away from 2013.
