Before
I start, I would first like to apologise for not posting much last week, but
normal service will be resumed this week.
Okay,
well where do I start? It's almost been two weeks since I last posted an
update post, and lots of things have happened.
So,
I've continued to write my series '10 Years of BJJ', and it has been very
successful, and as always I am eternally grateful for all the support. This
week I started to post some of the parts on Reddit, and they were met with
lots of success and feedback, so I am very happy. Part 4 (My First
Competition) in particular saw lots of success. In fact, it gained over
1500 views in 12 hours, which is incredible! And as a result is my second most
viewed post on this blog.
I
have seen a lot of traffic in the past two weeks to this blog, and as a result
I have surpassed 35,000 views! Which I am over the moon about, and all I can
say is thank you to everybody who takes the time to read my content, it really
does mean a lot. As a result, I'm pretty sure I shall hit my goal of 100,000
views before the end of the year.
Now,
I have gone a little dry in terms of interview recently. I try my best to get
at least one interview out every 2-3 weeks, but I currently have three
interview out at the moment, and I am still waiting for replies to them. Those
interviews are of course Ryan Hall, Kit Dale and Gianni Grippo. These
interviews I am really excited about, as I asked a lot of question I think you
guys will be interested in. However, they all have very busy lives, and it might
take a while to receive a reply. Although, I can’t wait forever, I need
to still be asking for interviews with people, and recently I asked JT
Torres to do an interview with me. As of now I haven't heard anything from
him, but fingers crossed I will receive a reply off him soon.
The
last time I wrote an update post, I talked a little about writing an article
about the 2014 WPJJC. Well, time has gone by since then, and I think you need
to write articles about events pretty soon after the event itself has taken
place, so I think it’s a little passé. However, I am planning on writing an
article for the upcoming Copa Podio event held on May 10th in Rio de Janeiro.
They have a lot of exciting fighters taking part, so it should be an awesome
event overall.
Hopefully,
sometime this week I also hope to write a non-BJJ related article. This article
I intend to write about Vince Russo. Now, some of you may be familiar with
Vince and some of you might not, but he has a lot to do with professional
wrestling. Most of you might not know this about me, but I am at heart a big
professional wrestling fan. Although, I don't watch the product much now, I
still to try and keep up to date with everything that is happening.
I
have a big interest in wrestling controversies; shoot interviews, creative
teams etc. And one man I am particularly interested in is Vince Russo. I can
tell you I have spent a lot of time watching interviews with him as I find him
and his past very interesting. Vince himself is considered by many to be the
savior of the WWF in the mid-late 90's, and is responsible for turning it into
one of the most popular TV shows in America, and spawning what is known as the 'attitude era'. There is a lot I could say about
Vince Russo, but I shall leave it mostly for the article.
Now,
I don't plan on writing many non-BJJ articles, but I thought I would throw one
in every now and then, just to mix things up and perhaps reach out to a new
audience.
That's
all for this week, and be sure to look out for lots of exciting contenting
coming your way this week!
Catch
you later,
Giordano
