Blog Workshops!
So a few months ago I hosted a “Blog Workshop” at my apartment for a few friends who are interested in starting blogs. Like the good Southern hostess that I am, I set up some snacks for their enjoyment and a little display that went along with our topic for the night. I’ve won quite a few things through blogging and I’m also a participant of a few programs that reward bloggers and I wanted to show them what they could be doing through blogging and the opportunity they have to be a part of some great incentive programs!
We just spent the evening starting up blogs, asking questions, and just basic starter things.
From this night though sparked one of those very rare fabulous ideas for my own blog – Blog Workshops! I’m no expert and I obviously need help myself, but there are tons of fabulous bloggers out there who push out well written and edited posts about various things you may need/want to know about blogging. If you gander up at my navigation bar, you’ll see a link for Blog Workshops where you can seek out advice on various topics you may have questions about. I can’t promise that what you need will be there, but I’m constantly on the search for good blog tips/tricks. If you have a post that you’ve written and you think others would benefit from it, then send me an e-mail at heatherblack79@gmail.com so I can add your link and name to the page. My hope for this page is that it can be a resource for beginner bloggers who feel lost or even regular bloggers who are seeking a way to move their blog to the next level.
Enjoy the Blog Workshops you’ll find on that page and let me know if you have any suggestions!
What I’m reading…
I’ve been reading some really fabulous posts lately that I thought It’d be a good idea to share them. I’m not gonna lie (although, you’ll already know this..) but this wasn’t my original idea, of course! I’ve seen bloggers share what they’ve read throughout the past week that they think their readers would enjoy and I think it’s an excellent idea. So, without further adieu, I’d love for you to check out some of these fabulous bloggers and what they’ve been chatting about this week!
Kelly @ Kelly’s Korner talks about Trust and right now this topic is hitting home for me due to the job search and life changes I’m facing. I need to trust that God has everything under control. I have also had multiple discussions over the past few months about our hearts desires and a portion of the verse she shares says that if you delight in the Lord, he will give you the desires of your heart. That just affirms what I’ve been thinking and praying!
Samantha @ Hooah & Hiccups talks about Changes in relationships and how she’s viewing those changes and finding ways to feel more blessed instead of sad about those changes. I think this is something we all go through and struggle with as we go through college and graduate and end up spaced out from our friends. It’s a good read and a good reminder!
Rachel @ The Random Writings of Rachel talks about sacrificing/serving in her relationship even when it’s not easy or fun anymore! It was a beautiful reminder of what a Christ-centered relationship should be, or any relationship for that matter! Sometimes it takes a little more effort to be of service to your significant other. At times we succeed at that, like Rachel did, but there are also times we fail at that and it’s nice to be reminded.
Becky @ From Mrs. to Mama shares how to make some money blogging! I don’t make any money blogging right now, with the exception of free products from companies. It’s definitely something I may consider in the future though if I need to make some money on the side. I enjoyed getting great tips for it. This may be for you or it may not be, but if you need a little extra money or just want a little extra money for a vacation or large item you’re saving for… you may be interested in reading this post!
**I shared these posts with you because I got great information or perspective from them and really enjoy reading from these ladies every day! This was my first time to do a post like this, but I really enjoyed picking out great content to share with y’all and I look forward to keeping future posts like this in mind as I read your blogs!
Hope you’re having a great Monday sweet friends! Thank you for the kind comments and prayers from yesterdays post where I shared my heart about finding a job and praying God’s will for my life over this next season I’m entering!! Y’all are the greatest!
