Hey there Blerdy Tribe, we’re a month away from saying goodbye to 2020! This has been a year full of some huge changes and while not all of them were great, we’re all hanging in there and doing our best!

Things have been moving here at Blerdy Otome and I’m super excited about some phenomenal opportunities on the horizon! I am always in awe of how much this site has grown over the years and I can’t wait to see what the future holds for my little corner of the internet. For all of you that have stuck with me through the years, THANK YOU, you guys are the real MVPs here and I want to do something special for you guys (so keep an eye out for a special announcement soon).

I have even more stuff coming in December, but before we dive into the new, let’s look back at the month of November here on Blerdy Otome!!

Hey there Blerdy Tribe, it has been one hell of a year, but I hope you guys are all hanging in there! This year is just flying by and I know a lot of us are eager to say goodbye to this “interesting” year.

October was a surprising month for me, I had some great opportunities both personally and with my blog. I had a call with someone earlier this month that might pan out to a HUGE opportunity and I’m excited to see where this goes. I was invited to participate in the Wonder of Anime podcast and I had a BLAST with the host Lisa (I definitely made a new bestie), so definitely give that a listen: The Wonder of Anime: Blerdy Otome ft Naja B. I have even more stuff coming in November, but before we dive into the new, let’s look back at the month of October here on Blerdy Otome!!

Hey there Blerdy Tribe, it has been one hell of a year, but I hope you guys are all hanging in there! September was a busy month for me since I moved to a new apartment and I am ready for things settle down… however, it looks like that isn’t going to happen anytime soon. This was also the month that I said goodbye to my 20’s and you know what it’s kinda surreal… I feel exactly the same as I did BEFORE my birthday hit.

I mentioned that I was invited to participate in a roundtable discussion with the Manga Mavericks Podcast discussing what it’s like being a Black nerd and I HAD A BLAST!! I got to talk and laugh with so many other talented Black nerdy content creators, so definitely give the episode a listen: Manga Mavericks EP. 133: “Black Representation in Anime/Manga”. I have even more neat stuff coming in October, but before that, let’s look back at the month of September here on Blerdy Otome!!

Hey there Blerdy Tribe, is it just me or did this month kind of breeze by? But, I suppose when you’re going on 7 months of staying at home the days and months kind of blend together.

August marked the 5th Anniversary of this blog and for those of you that have been around since my Nice Job Breaking It, Hero days, I just want to say THANK YOU for sticking with me for so long! It has been one hell of a journey and I couldn’t have done it without the love and support of all you wonderful folks out there. You guys are the real MVPs here!

We’re kicking off September and the end of my 20’s, but before we tackle that, lets take a bit to look back at the month of August here on Blerdy Otome!!

Blerdy Otome Monthly Recap – July 2020

By pokeninja90 on August 1, 2020 • ( 6 Comments )

Hey there Blerdy Tribe, man has it been a crazy year… and yes, I am still working from home. Is it too late to just count 2020 as a loss and jump to 2021? July was a bit of a mixed bag for me since I spent most of the month dealing with an ongoing leak that caused severe damage to my ceiling. Which was just one more reason for me to find a new apartment and blessing of all blessings I was approved for a great new place and I’ll be out of this hell hole come September!!

There were of course some positives in July: I was invited to participate in a round-table discussion with fellow black creatives over on the Manga Mavericks’s podcast! I had a blast talking with some truly talented individuals and it was great swapping stories and just all around having a great time. (I’ll share the link when the episode goes live). I’m also one of three hosts in an upcoming podcast… but, the details of that are a bit hush hush for the time being, so stay tuned for that!

August brings with it more fun opportunities and the 5th Anniversary of this blog!! So, before we dive in to the new stuff, let’s take a bit to look back at the month of July here on Blerdy Otome!!
