Tuesday Chatter: Promote Thyself!

Image

Posted on 08/18/2015 by Gene'O

No writerly post today, so you’re invited to share a link to your blog, or to a blog you like

arrr, Mateys!

(or both, but no more than one of each) on the thread.

Bonus round: I’ll check in here this evening, look at any links that are shared while I’m working today, and think about featuring one or more of them in the post here on Thursday.

Have a great day!

Hello all! I shall take this opportunity to introduce my blog, Secret Diary Of PorterGirl, which started out as an (almost) true story and has evolved into mischief, shenanigans and some of the politest murders in English history. Please do pop by if you find yourself at a loose end…

What a lovely idea, Gene ‘O.

Although Vinyl Connection is a blog focussed on music, some of your readers might find greater entertainment the periodic ‘memoir’ posts (that, surprise, include music).

It is a category I’ve called “Music: Now it’s personal”

I thought this post might be about some tips on self-promotion. I’m always interested in marketing and promoting so today’s mission is also good.

Hope to get more visitors on my Battle of the Bands posts which have been pretty popular for about 2 years now. Come vote on my current Battle at http://tossingitout.blogspot.com/2015/08/bo-dang-buck-botb-vacation-version.html

Battles happen on the 1st and 15th of each month.

I cannot begin to pick just one blog that I like, so I will just self-promote instead. My blog is http://notapunkrocker.wordpress.com and I write about everything from Legos to depression, and nail polish to eating disorders. In other words, all the junk in my (and my son’s) life 😀

Hi there! Cheers Gene’O for the opportunity to share.

AddAltMode is a joint husband and wife geek blog. We write about books, film, gaming, music and what we call “geek life” as well as sharing progress with the various projects in cosplay and 3D printing / toy customisation that do. We’re heavily into Transformers and robots in general but do talk about other things too.

We’re a fairly new blog (8 months old & just hit our 100th post) so if any of the above sounds like your sort of thing please do stop by: https://addaltmode.wordpress.com/

As fate would have it, today I published 5 blog posts (it was a multi-part series) defending Olly on Game of Thrones for [REDACTED]. I’ll just leave a link to the blog, rather than to each of the 5. Thanks for providing the sharing forum:

Thanks to everyone for playing. I’m giving this about another hour or so, then answering the thread, and when that’s done, the links that got in before I answered the comments will be the ones I pick from for the Thursday post.

Will start all that at around 7 pm ET.
