9.    What blogs and websites do you follow and why?

Michellae: I follow mainly artisan blogs, entrepreneurial websites and page of other businesses. The reason is because ,personally , i know how hard it can be sometimes to decide that you want to start your own business or just to try and make a living from doing something that you love. I love to see other person's journey and growth in business and I'm really intrigued by the mental capacity to create a product or provide a service that persons perceive to be valuable so those are the main reasons.
