No matter how busy I am, if I’m near an internet connection I visit two inspiring blogs on a daily basis. Successful Blog, hosted by sweet ME Strauss (Liz), covers branding, writing, customers, ideas, has a weekly Open Mike Night chatathon, and, if you have a decent track record, you’ll come away a S.O.B.
With Liz at the helm, Successful Blog isn’t just a good read, it’s a warm and growing community.
When I first started reading, I just lurked. I had no intentions of joining in. Hey, I’m a busy gal, right? But after I twigged what was going on I felt driven to contribute. Give it a try and you’ll also experience Liz’s warm personality dragging you out from the shadows with a myriad of questions and events. Her kind replies will have you feeling like you’ve arrived home, the fire is on, and your slippers and hot chocolate are waiting. Or, in my case, G&T’s.
From the about:
Liz is a writer, career coach, and strategic planner with a focus on corporate blogging and strategic marketing. Her business writing is known for its clarity, originality, and a voice that develops a warm relationship with readers. Her presentations are known for being jam-packed with information, motivation, and fun.
When Liz isn’t hosting a get together over at Successful Blog, you can find her sharing advice at Liz Strauss [dot] com, her writers blog.
PS: Liz was jumping up and down about the banner I created for her at DWB, so I fiddled a bit for a fit, and … there you have it. A new banner for Successful Blog.
And the second blog-of-my-life? ProBlogger, by Darren Rowse. Darren sends us off with homework (thanks!) which resulted in my Team Blogging Goals.

I not only started jumping up and down. I haven’t stopped yet. It’s gorgeous!! I think I’m going to get it framed! Thanks so much,Cat, for your great words and for all you do to make the blogosphere a better place to be spending time together.
I have G&T now please!

One G&T coming right up!
Again, thanks for all you do Liz. I’ve taken down so many notes on blogging and writing from your site, it will fill a book. An instruction book for my team anyway :-)
