Alright folks, I am feeling really inspired by last night's panel discussion at
The Lab. Last night's topic was about Blogging. I was really excited to hear what these well read ladies had to say. Megan of
Not Martha was on the panel. Megan is a very well read, old school blogger. I have had the pleasure of meeting Megan several times but I loved learning more about her, her blog and how she views blogging in general. What I have always loved about her blog is that it is her. She has good taste, she shares her projects and her site is very simple and user friendly. Above all she is a very nice person and always fun to talk to. If you are not a fan yet, what are you waiting for?
It is always a pleasure to chat with Mary T of
Shelterrific who was also on the panel. As always, Mary has a great summary of last night's event so click the link to see what she has to say about being a successful blogger. I met Mary shortly after her and her husband moved here from Ohio where I am from as well as Megan. Mary is so nice to always make it an appoint to introduce me to various newcomers of Seattle. Such as Tula of
Whorange who immediately has become a new obsession of mine. Holy hell that woman has amazing taste! Tula is visiting this week from LA and I hope that she is able to make it over to
Schmancy for at least a quick hello.
Then there was Elaine of
Deorno. Now this will be a weird confession but I think one thing I admire about her is that she has no shame in her game. I like that if she doesn't like something she says it. Nothing needs to be sugar coated with her and you have got to admire a girl who says "that's ghetto" and isn't afraid to say "fuck" in her posts...or at least I do. She's got a great sense of good design and she's hilarious to boot. What more do you really want out of blog reading?
Last we have Paola from
Mirror Mirror. Unfortunately it was a bit hard to hear her but I thought what she said was really interesting. She has an awesome blog and was at the last event so I hope to see her at the next event and perhaps get to talk with her a bit more.
Needless to say I want to set up a poll system so the site is a bit more interactive and perhaps set up a few more things to make this site more useful to you all. If you have any suggestions of what you might like to see up here please let me know.
Lastly, I will be on the next panel at The Lab along with the fabulous
Made By Moxie and the talented
Hansi. We will be not only discussing the Plush You! show and how that has come about but we will be talking about crafting, selling your goods, etc. It should be a great night. I'll talk more about it as time approaches.
