It’s official. I have a new addiction. Why, why, did I wait so long to join Instagram? I’m constantly sending pictures to friends and family of random amusements (about 50% of which are related to Sumo, naturally) and I’ve known about Instagram for years. Why did I never put the two together before now? It makes as much sense as another discovered-far-too-late combination: Reese’s cups filled with Reese’s pieces.
My plan is to use my Instagram account to capture and share all those random, fun (and photogenic) things I come across. I can promise a lot of Sumo, tons of flowers, and more sparkly things than you can shake a stick at. Of course, there will be book-related posts there too, but it won’t be as book-centric as this blog. You can find me here: https://www.instagram.com/recordsoftheohanzee/
Any other Instagram users out there? Any tips or advice for a newbie?

I just joined last week! I don’t own a camera so I’ve never been in the habit of taking photos, but I’m trying to capture more of this part of my life. Cheers to the latecomers!

The addiction is too real 🙂 I don’t even know how much time I spend on instagram but I like it, so I don’t mind it that much 🙂
Only one advice – enjoy 🙂

I’m just now getting the hang on Instagram. One tip is to upload a pic featuring your latest post, write a caption about it and also mention that the link is in your bio. Then, update your profile with your latest post’s URL. Oh, and don’t forget to use hashtags.
I added you on instagram! Find me there at https://www.instagram.com/fabiblogger/

Oh! I hadn’t even thought of cross-posting between there and the blog. Thanks for the great suggestion! I added you as well–those hydrangea are beautiful! I’ve never had any luck growing them, always too much or too little water and they wilt away on me. lol
