As part of my decision to significantly improve this blog I’ve enrolled in the Blog Triage class offered by Alyson Stanfield and Cynthia Morris. This is a real class complete with homework and everything!
Our first assignment is interesting. It appears that there is a somewhat popular concept of bloggers actually inviting people to read their blog and interact with them as the writer ; ) Wow, that sounds fun! So our first assignment is to send a message to the blogosphere detailing just who we want to read our blog and engage in dialog with. Oh, so that’s easy…
This blog is meant for you if you:
- want to explore how to look and feel great in what you wear
- are interested in building a unique wardrobe that expresses your creativity
- sew and/or knit (or know someone who will happily do it for you)
- can’t find all the clothes you want in stores and catalogs
- have multiple other interests that will be supported by you looking like you in the world
- will occasionally (or continually!) post banter-inducing comments and/or meaningful content on this blog
- want to make more money, lose weight, have a better sex life and live in spiritual bliss for all eternity (yes, it’s possible that a few really great articles of clothing could support all of that!)
Join me as I temporarily shun ready-to-wear and build my hand-crafted, gorgeous-with-a-twist, functional and feel-good wardrobe. Tell me what you think. Inspire me with your dare-devilish wardrobe-building feats and exceptional tales of wearing pleasure. And also let me know when it didn’t quite work.
Together we’ll have a blast creating each new piece and showing the world just who we are, right now, one garment at a time!
Love it! I always knew it was my pesky wardrobe in the way of all good things I wanted. I am your reader except I hate to sew. But all the other things, wanting good clothes that suit who I am….yes!
I love what you have done with your assignment! A straight forward invitation. I didn’t want to do this first assignment publicly but am thinking now maybe I will. Nice job. Look forward to reading the next one..
Wow! Jana, this is a GREAT post! It has humor and is full of energy. I’m so glad you’re in the class.
I LOVED this post. I felt totally excited by it. Want to jump on your bandwagon NOW! What fun. More. I need more!
