So it seems the secret is out! Some of the brightest blogging minds are getting together in Chicago in May … check out the details here.
When I was thinking about the way this came together, I stumbled upon this cute photo on Flickr. There are a few others in the series. But this one grabbed me … it is about starting — but starting with a secret message — "A girl goes up to a boy’s backpack and leaves a little love letter".
In many ways, blogging is like constantly writing love letters. You think about, maybe even obsess about a topic, you let it stew away, and then, in a fit of passion, the post flies from the tips of your fingers up onto the screen. Will anyone read it? Will they respond? Will this passion remain unrequited?
Like any great love, you start with the first message. And if any of you have NOT started a blog, isn’t it time to start a new love affair? Go on Tammy. We’re waiting.
Yes, it is much like a little love affair. Tendering notes of affection and waiting for those first responses. Those first sweet acknowledgments. That first playful back and forth. It’s very dizzying and intoxicating… isn’t it.
So Tammy… when the hell are you going to FINALLY get a blog going? We’re all waiting for those first tender notes from you.
