I'm Speaking at BlogPaws!

This is so exciting! I'll be speaking at BlogPaws this week. My presentation is Social Media: A beginner's guide to building your influence.

My nerves have the best of me right now, because BlogPaws, a social media conference for pet writers and bloggers, is where I really got hooked on social media. So being able to share my social media knowledge at the event that you could say changed the path of my career, is exciting.

If I'm able to share the slides after the event, I will. At the very least, I think they will be available on the website and I will share that link here.

Ironically, the same weekend, there is a social media gathering in the Adirondacks, #ADK827, which I'm very bummed about missing. But, there is a good chance I will Skype in and ask a question to the one of the panels.

Isn't it so amazing that technology allows you to (sort of) be in two places at once?

What Are Your Blogging Tips?

Tomorrow night I'm speaking at the first in a series of creative writing workshops for teens. The topic I'm speaking about is blogging, and while I've created several handouts about blogging best practices for teens, I thought it would be fun to create a sheet with tips from other people who also blog.

To participate, please leave a comment below with your number one tip for blogging. I will include the best ones along with your name, a link to your blog and Twitter handle if you leave the information in the comment section.

Thanks!
