Each November I challenge the women of See Jane Write to #bloglikecrazy, to publish a new blog post every day for a month.
Today I’d like to take a moment to salute the women who stuck with it and gave their readers 30 posts in 30 days.
Jennifer Dome King of Stellar Fashion & Fitness
As you might have guessed from the title, Jennifer’s blog is about fashion and fitness but is also about so much more. Jennifer says she wants her blog to motivate her readers to “become stellar people.” Whether you’re trying to become more physically fit or learn how to dress in a way that truly expresses your personality, Stellar Fashion & Fitness needs to be in your blog roll.
Irene Latham of Live Your Poem
Irene Latham is a poet and novelist whose blog Live Your Poem encourages readers to do just that. How can you live your poem? “Cultivate a secret life,” Irene urges. “Take the road not taken,” Irene challenges. And “when the time comes, let it go, let it go,” she says. For musings on books, writing, and living a life worth writing about, you need to read Live Your Poem.
Leslie Golden of The Books That Follow You Home
For some people books may just be words on a page. But to Leslie Golden books are magic and that’s what her blog is all about. Leslie’s blog is about books “that follow you home,” books whose stories and characters become a part of you. Leslie blogs about all types of books — fiction or non-fiction, classic, modern or indifferent, genre specific or fusion — “as long as they’re good. Good enough to be thought about, good enough to be re-read, good enough to be shared.” If you love good books, Leslie’s website will become the blog that follows you home.
I also want to give a shout out to Edward T. Bowser of Soul In Stereo. Since he’s my better half, Edd is basically an honorary member of See Jane Write. Every year the hubster blogs like crazy with me and my Janes on his music blog Soul In Stereo. Edd has an encyclopedic knowledge of pop culture and one of the reason his blog has become so popular through the years is the fact that he never pulls any punches. If you want honest rants and reviews of hip-hop, R&B and even current events, you need to check out Soul In Stereo.
Thank you all for blogging like crazy with me this year!
Thank you for the shout out! I learned so much by blogging every day in November. It gave me a lot of confidence in my blogging ability, but also challenged me to do better. Thank you for giving us this goal to meet!
Thank you so much! I knew that starting a blog was my “next step” on the road of building a platform but I was terrified by the “what ifs” (what if I make a mistake, what if I run out of material, what if nobody reads it) Your challenge got me past the stage fright and into a daily discipline. My dreams are closer to reality because of you.
That is such a lovely thing to say! I am so glad you enjoyed blogging like crazy with us and I can’t wait to see what’s next for you!
