My favorite social media tip is to join a blog party! Blog parties can last anywhere from a day to a year, and the themes cover anything you can imagine from A - Z and everything in between.
Why You Should Consider Participating
- You discover many wonderful blogs that you might not otherwise stumble upon
- You meet new, like-minded people and develop new friendships
- Blog parties often challenge your own creativity and prompt new creative ideas
- Concentrating on a party theme eliminates any creative block you may be experiencing
- ALL of the above!
September Blog Party, "The Fairies' Tea"
I was visiting The Fanciful Magpie this morning when I saw this invitation on her blog post. It's an invitation hosted by Inspiration Avenue, and the Blog Hop is scheduled for Sunday, September 23, 2012. Now, you know I don't do whimsy, fairies, or cuddly and cute. So why have I decided to join this particular party? For those very reasons!
Maybe it's the gradual approach of fall or my much anticipated, upcoming vacation, but I feel a strong desire to step away from my element. It's time to go exploring creatively, physically, mentally. I feel the need to walk away from my adult world and explore with the eyes and mind of a child. And, I want to try some new techniques when my Twinkling H2Os arrive in the mail!
Even if this isn't your cup of tea (yes, pun intended), I hope you'll keep your eyes open for parties and challenges posted on your favorite blogs. If you do find this party appealing, everything you need to know to participate is posted HERE.
Remember to check back here on September 23rd to see what my fairies are up to (mischievousness, no doubt). See you at the party!
CELEBRATE * LOVE * CREATE
And...
Have a cup of tea while you're at it!
