Editor’s Note: Where I Am Now (2026)

Editor’s Note (2026)

A little update from where I was when I originally wrote this post.

Since writing this accountability post, my circumstances have changed. I have returned to paid employment, which means my priorities and available time have shifted.

Content creation is still important to me, but YouTube and podcasting will be taking more of a back seat while I focus on balancing work, life, and my other commitments.

The blog, however, remains an important project. I am continuing to develop Annie in Wonderland and am working towards making it a sustainable creative venture.

My goal is to continue improving the quality of the blog, sharing meaningful content, and exploring opportunities to monetise the website through responsible partnerships, advertising, and other creator opportunities.

Thank you for following along with the journey and understanding that life changes. The direction may evolve, but the purpose remains the same: creating thoughtful content, sharing experiences, and continuing to learn along the way.

Editor’s Note: Where I Am Now (2026)

Hey all, so when I started this blog I had no idea what I was getting into. I didn’t realise how much work it would take. I was also in a housing situation that put stress on people in my personal life, but now I have a bit of a handle on content creation and I am getting spam emails about levelling up my content.

However, I have a bit of time on my hands, so there won’t be new content for a while as I am going to focus on better quality content and bringing several blogs into one. So we say goodbye to the brand and the long-winded Annie in Wonderland: How to Explain the NDIS and Hello to Annie in Wonderland on the blog.

I am not leaving content creation but wanting to focus on some study to enable me to make better overall content, whether it be the blog, YouTube, Rumble, or the podcast. I am also learning some life skills and lessons that are valuable and never too late to learn.

I am working on being able to be independent, but accepting care at the same time, and this is a hard one to work with. But a needed one, so I am merging the Manifesting blog, the media, and the disability one into one blog and also deleting any content that isn’t relevant to the brand as well. I am asking for understanding as this is going to take time and effort to do. I am also looking into affiliate links as well but don’t want to spam people with them as well.

As I would like to be monetised for ads, let me know if you’re seeing ads, as I keep getting rejected for reasons that seem to be beyond me or very generic.

I also realise that it’s time to be a bit more broad, but it’s time to step away from disability and the NDIS to focus on being real and authentic in my life. That means being broader around what I am talking about and taking the time to level up the content, as well as being more present in my own life and not being so unaware of people in my life, but being able to help people as well.

So focusing on my other hobbies such as painting and sewing, and life skills such as learning how to cook, clean, and keep organised, and work with caregivers to achieve this, as it’s up to me to communicate what I need. They aren’t mind readers, so I need to ask for the help I need and to work with them and my family, not against them.

I am also working on my health and wellbeing, and part of that is getting offline. So I am aiming for two YouTube/Rumble videos and doing some lives in a month, one podcast a week, and one blog post — a deep dive a month. So let’s see how it goes now I have given myself time to breathe.
