This blog was created for a class I was taking at Rowan University this semester but it has turned into so much more. I’m going to be continuing to produce content for this website with no plans of ever stopping. I truly enjoy blogging in this fashion and having an outlet like this to talk about what I’m passionate about, cigars.
It was so great to make amazing new friends at the lounges I went to and will be sure to go back to. Taking this class turned my instagram “blog” into a true quality content producing account. I learned to do more than just post pictures with paragraph length captions, instead I now have the confidence and skills to conduct interviews, gather footage, explore the world of cigar lounges and so much more. While there were all these great rewards for taking this class, I also ran into some challenges. For me, it was hard to not put out all the content I gathered in every way I could! I struggled with my first interview especially, giving a lot of content when it may have been better to be more precise about what I wanted my audience to gain from it. Although, I feel like as I went along I was able to better control myself with this and have much more control on the quantity vs quality aspect of my posts. Hopefully in the three posts below, which I am most proud of, you can see the progress I made come to fruition!
1. Seeing what’s lit at Lit Cigar Lounge; With TV Star Artie Weiner!
