I’m a Blogger | (Girl) Nigel Holderby

1. What is your name? Nigel Holderby – aka The Girl Nigel
2. What is your blog’s title and URL? Eclectic Me: eclectic-me.com
3. What is your blog about? The things that make me go hmmmm and random other ramblings about being a mother of 5 and a wife and a business owner in our hectic world.
4. Why did you start blogging? I think my husband was tired of being the only set of ears that got to listen to my ramblings. (aka – Nigel Stupid Stories)…He suggested I blog, and then proceeded to create an online voice for me. His encouragement is why I started, my addiction is why I continue.
5. What’s your favorite Springfield restaurant? Hong Kong Inn
6. What’s your full-time job? I own a small business, Virtual Day Planners. We are Virtual Assistants and work remotely for traveling salespersons across the country, scheduling appointments and handling their calendars. I run the business and work with 2 calendars as well.
7. What else do you do for fun? I enjoy long walks on the beach, hanging out backstage at various rock venues, and eating squid in Madagascar. Oh… wait, you mean in reality. I like Cake.
8. What words of blogging wisdom would you like to share with your fellow bloggers? Blog for the sake of blogging. Everything that you do should ultimately be for you…If you love to talk, love to write and love to share, just do it. Success comes from the passion that others see in your work. Be it art, music, blogging…when you share it with passion people will follow. And if they don’t? Well their loss I say.
9. What’s been your biggest blogging success? I got a compliment from my mom. She said, “You are so profound” when she read my post titled “Losing my Religion.” I was expecting to be excommunicated from our very Baptist family, so this was a complete shock!
10. What’s your favorite local blog? Why? The Geek Source. Because I am madly in love with the writer and I want to have his children. Have you seen him? He is hot! He has an uncanny way of throwing humor into tech that makes me laugh, and want to buy useless to me geek things. Oh…and we have the same name.
