Blogging with Gutenberg

Embracing GUTENBERG ~ a blogger’s journey, one block at a time.

Gutenberg is a game-changer in the world of blogging. I admit, when it first came out, I wasn’t a fan. In this digital medium, we tend to gravitate to the familiar. After years of blogging, I’m guilty of this well-entrenched mindset. When Gutenberg was introduced, I was completely lost when I tried to format my first blog post. Blocks? Really? Why do you hate me so? After ten minutes of frustration, I surrendered and returned, with zealous enthusiasm, to my dear old friend – Classic Editor. Gutenberg was the enemy.

But, as we all know, the one guaranteed constant in this progressive digital age is CHANGE. Fear it or embrace it. From the headline, you can see where I’m going with this.

Before I jump into this post, my first suggestion/piece of advice is this: don’t try to learn Gutenberg if you’re under a tight deadline to publish a blog post. Just don’t. Be kind to yourself AND your keyboard. You’ll surely deem it the unwelcome intruder of your personal space. Truth. If you’re a blogger, you know what I mean. Blogging is personal.

Remember writing your first blog post all those years/months ago? Trying to figure out the WordPress Classic Editor? If you’re still blogging, you succeeded. High five, my friends! Now… let’s do it again with Gutenberg. Game on!

In a series of posts, I’m setting out to highlight the numerous features of Gutenberg in all their glory. Trust me on this, if you’re not using it, you’re missing out on a blogging game changer. And PLEASE, don’t let a bad first impression tarnish the possibility of a lasting new, vibrant friendship.

I’m also going to be blogging about another FREE plugin called Gutenberg Blocks – Ultimate Addons for Gutenberg. This is a must, too. A hands-down gem of WordPress plugins. Seriously, it’s that awesome.

I hope after reading these posts you’re feeling more at ease with using Gutenberg.

Embracing the change is all that’s to it. AND a little practice when we’re not pressed for time.

Until next time… happy blogging, my friends! ♥

Natalie Ducey

As a multi-passionate creator my heart is rooted in storytelling, self-expression, and soulful connection. I’m a writer of poetry that journeys the deep emotional landscapes of life—the vulnerability and valour of the soul.
My creativity extends beyond the page. I love creating soothing, sweet melodic melodies. Where the silence between the notes soothes the soul, and the tenor and tone seem to transcend time. I find comfort and joy in the art of crochet, and the free artistic expression of graphic design—each medium offering a unique way to inspire, uplift, and connect with others on their own creative journeys.
Nature is my sanctuary. In its tranquil beauty and quiet wisdom, I find restoration, reflection, and a deeper connection to the soul. It’s where I return to breathe, to listen, and to simply be.
This space is a celebration of creativity in all its forms. Creativity, for me, is more than expression—it is transformation. It is how we return to ourselves. Whether you’ve arrived here for a spark of inspiration, a moment of peace, or a sense of belonging—I welcome you!
