From the site Novaenergija.net we are broadcasting the entire interview with Maja Petrović, author of the Vitki Gurman blog.

One of the most followed blogs for hedonists in this region is Slim gourmand, whose author Maja Petrović. In addition to content on cooking, types of food and methods of preparation, you can also find content on nutrition on the blog, and Maja is known for healthy living and healthy eating and recently published her first book Gourmet connections.

Novaenergija: Would you say that all bloggers are writers?

You ask me a difficult thing because I never use the words everyone/all/all. I use the words: most and some.

Most are writers - some very good and some very bad.

I don't read all, not even most blogs. Sometimes I'm not interested in the topics and sometimes I can't make it because I have to read books and foreign professional blogs that I need for my writing.

I wasn't a good writer in the beginning - I was chaotic. But I knew my subject and loved it, endured and studied. Interested bloggers, who want to be better and progress - learn to write. They learn a lot more.

Some don't learn to write, they just take pictures. Some take pictures and write a little, although no one reads what they write. Some write miles of brilliant texts, and no one reads them because they have just started... This is variable.

Novaenergija: Many on the Internet write solely for themselves...

If I didn't need an audience for what I have to say, I would have told it all to a well or a hole in the ground. I wouldn't waste money on a domain and hosting?

You can't write just for yourself because the basic idea of ​​a blog is that you have a message that you want to convey to your readers, that you want to change something, do something... The greater the readership, the greater the chance to achieve your goals or convey that message.

I call that the power, speed and mass of conveying a meaningful, accurate, quality and good message influence.

I distinguish between influence and popularity, and there are few who have both. Popularity without influence is little hollow, so I don't follow those who are just popular. They don't hold my attention.

Novaenergija: Bloggers earn absolutely no money, but they have many privileges: lunches in restaurants, VIP seats at concerts, front row tickets in theaters...

For most, it will be: no money, no concert, and I'll prepare lunch myself. For the rest - everything later ali is correct & everything before ali is incorrect. And some of us write a book, then we publish it ourselves and there is also (no) money?

There is a lot of talk about making money through blogs. I've always been a supporter of the trend that thinks this should happen, but I'm also someone who believes that paid content must be labeled. That's why I put the price list on the blog, with the fact that it clearly states what I can and can't do.

I know of blogs that don't tag some or all paid content. It's not OK with me, but they have the right to make such a decision on their blog. In fact, everything is OK if the readers are not promised one thing, but another is being done.

Basically, I think that in my case it would be more interesting stories about which texts and collaborations I rejected?

Novaenergija: Everything they write on the Internet already exists in books...

Bloggers did not invent hot water, but it is up to us to bring some content closer to readers and motivate them to change something in their life or environment. For example, I explained insulin resistance through a comic on my blog. I know of those who, thanks to that text, finally understood what it is and went to the doctor for an examination, discovered that they had it and changed their habits.

I translated the texts from the blog into a book - but I first found the inspiration for those texts and the knowledge for them in books. It is inseparable.

Novaenergija: Bloggers have complete freedom, as do the media...

The question made me laugh, because it was asked at the right moment. I am the first blogger who is in court because of what was written on the blog. For now I have complete freedom. And if you need to bring me a baklava with a hidden file inside, to fix some bars in the prison - I'll let you know in time. On the Blogomania Fashion & Beauty, in addition to all the latest fashion hits, screams and shouts - I'm wearing a T-shirt that has an inscription on it Monte Cristo rules. To be found just in case...

Joking aside, I would never let a case like this affect me. I believe that I am doing something important on my blog and the letters from readers confirm that. I see the lawsuit against me as an attempt to stifle free speech and intimidation. Failed attempt - because something like this can make me nervous and spoil my mood. But my morals and courage cannot be affected.
