Be My Guest: Write Your Post Here
May 24, 2010 — a.k.a writer, Guest Blogging, Invitation to guest post
While I’m focusing on a writing project in mid-June, I’d like to open this blog to you. Posts penned by guest writers will run June 18 – 28. Previous guest bloggers have included Susan Johnston of The Urban Muse and Liz Sheffield of Motherlogue, among others. Last month, I wrote a guest post for Lisa Romeo and had a wonderful experience, plus I had a chance to connect with a fellow blogger.
Why be a guest blogger?
- You want an easy way to get your writing, opinions and/or tips in front of new people.
- You’re curious about blogging and want to try it before starting your own.
- You’re not interested in having a blog of your own, but you have something you want to share.
- You’ve been commenting here for a while and want to share more with your fellow readers.
- You see another side to a post I’ve previously published and you would like to provide a counter point.
Guidelines
- Topic: Your post should tie to some aspect of writing and/or being an entrepreneur. Share a story or your favorite tips. Check out my Popular Posts for more topic ideas. If you’ve got a post in mind, but you’re not sure if it’s a fit, send me an email.
- Length: 250 to 500 words. If you need more than 500 words, we can turn it into a two-part piece.
- Bio: Tell readers about you in two or three sentences. Got a blog or website of your own? Include the link in your bio.
- Comments: If you decide to do a guest post, be sure to watch—and respond to—the comments readers leave.
