Writer's Notes - April 2008

Happy [Unofficial] Blogger Appreciation Day!

April 14th 2008 23:59

A Wonderful ProBlogger Idea!

I've just learned from Sharon Hurley Hall, at Get Paid to Write Online, in her post, Appreciating Blogging Writers, that ProBlogger Darren Rowse has proclaimed April 14th, 2008 Blogger Appreciation Day. Read about it in his post, Today is Blogger Appreciation Day [UNOFFICIAL]. Apparently, Darren received three e-mails earlier today thanking him for all he's done for bloggers, and that prompted him to make this pronouncement. What a nice thought!

Darren's Suggestions

Darren recommends that we e-mail bloggers who have inspired, taught, or helped us in other ways and thank them--or better still that we thank them publicly on our blogs. And though April 14th is nearly at an end in Australia (and may even be over already in other parts of the world), it's the thought that counts, and I'd like to thank the following bloggers who have had a profound effect on me and my blogging during my past 15-plus months of blogging:

Joanna Young, at Confident Writing

AmyHuang, at Travel String

Michele Tune, at Writing the Cyber Highway

Raven, at Alaska Chronicle

Sharon Hurley Hall, at Get Paid to Write Online

James Rickard, at Angling Fish

Laura Spencer, at Writing Thoughts

Brad Shorr, at WordSell, Inc.

Liz Strauss, at Successful Blog

Krissy Knox, at Sometimes I Think

Dan, at dcr Blogs

Melissa Garrett, at Lis Garrett ~ Silver-Tongued Writer

Robert Hruzek, at Middle Zone Musings

K-IntheHouse, at ShanKri-la

Tracy, at Movies and Life

Cindy Nichols, at Kaleidoscope

Yvonne Russell, at Grow Your Writing Business

Lillie Ammann, at A Writer's Words, An Editor's Eye

Danielle, The Bipolar Diaries

Robyn, at Brain-Based Biz

Lynn Smythe, at Freelance Online Work

John Hewitt, at Writer's Resource Center

And last, but certainly not least,

Darren Rowse, at ProBlogger

Many thanks, everyone, for all you've done!

Sincerely,
Jeanne

Laura,

Don't feel too bad. I nearly did, too! If it hadn't been for Sharon, I'm sure I would have. I guess that's what happens when a blogger--even one as influential as Darren Rowse--decides to christen a day "Blogger Appreciation Day" at the last minute! But it certainly was a nice gesture and thought on Darren's part to do that in honor of the ProBlogger readers who had expressed their appreciation to him via e-mail.

Thanks for stopping by!
Jeanne
