Want to have fun, meet other blog-obsessed people, AND learn some techy blog stuff? Then, you need to go to the Casual Blogger Conference! Hosted by Mormon Mommy Blogs and Lea Lou Blogs, the CBC will be held on May 28 in Sandy, Utah. (Click on the above button for more details.)
Despite what that button says, I may or may not be going. It all depends on whether or not the planets align, I find matching socks, and if I can buy an invisibility cloak to wear. After all, I don’t want people to discover that I don’t actually look like the sky, with or without make-up.
Or, I’d go if I won a free ticket. I’d sort socks and reveal my secret identity for that.
But I had to choose between a button that said, “I’m Going” or one that said “I’m Speaking.”
And I am not speaking at the Casual Bloggers Conference.
Which is a crying shame, because I am an expert on blogging. An EXPERT, I tell you.
If I were invited to speak, these are some of the topics I would discuss:
- How to create the least popular blog in the blogosphere.
- How to gain a negative amount of subscribers.
- How to encourage people to not comment on your posts.
- How to change the look of your blog without improving it.
- How to write a blog post that even your mother will ignore.
I think these topics would pack in the crowds! PACK THEM IN! Because, after all, if there is anything bloggers crave more than not being popular, it’s to publish their best writing and have no one read it. And I could show them how!
So, Powers That Be at the CBC, you should so choose me to speak at the Casual Bloggers Conference. Then when registration sales decrease and people beg for refunds for previously purchased tickets, you’ll know you did the thing that could have been right, but probably wasn’t.
You don’t really look like the sky? Next you are going to tell me that your name isn’t “Life in the Highlands.”
Santa is real, though, right?
Oh, it’s not that bad. I read you blog. And I still want my girl Scout Cookies.
Louise: I don’t look like the sky. I look more like the clouds. And yes, there is a Santa. But his handwriting looks suspiciously similar to mine. Just ask my kids.
Scraplady: You will get your cookies. (And anything else I have to bribe you with to get you to keep reading my blog.)
