1. Q. “What is VegLiving?”

A. Live Well: Veg Living by Brian is a blog (shortened from “web-log“, an online location for publishing, like a periodical/newspaper/journal) that includes topics of interest such as news, notable products, thoughts and discussion, links and other resources concerning the vegetarian lifestyle.

 

2. Q. “Why was VegLiving created?”
A. The goal in creating this blog is to help readers be exposed to new ideas about the vegetarian lifestyle and to help spread a positive example to others on maintaining a healthy mind, body and soul.
Another goal in creating VegLiving was to help teenagers like myself, who might think it difficult to find a resource about their vegetarian or vegan diet and feel somewhat alone, especially if they are the only vegetarians in the family. I wanted others to be able to enjoy reading from a friendly journal-like blog to assure them, that’s there are other people like them! 
Okay, okay. Also, just to have a fun place to share thoughts, discussion and cool stuff with others in a simple manner, without distracting pictures or layout, or floods of recipes (like is often seen…). 

 

3. Q. “Who created VegLiving? Who’s the author?”
A. Pleased to meet you! My name is Brian Greco, I am thirteen years old, and I live in the United States. Not going to give out too much personal information about myself but I will tell you that I have been enthusiastic vegetarian for four years and am overjoyed to be able to share my thoughts and ideas for others to enjoy. If you would like to know more about me, please drop me an email.
