Blogging For Bliss: Crafting Your Own Online Journal: A Guide For Crafters, Artists & Creatives Of All Kinds (2009) - Plot & Excerpts
I have found that craft blogs are RED HOT! Even though this book was published several years ago, I found myself pouring over the pages and absorbing as much of the information as I could.I found the information about taking great photos, altering photos, designing banners, using photo-editing software, and adding "sidebar fancies" absolutely fascinating. I also learned how to use Blog Roll to attract more readers to my blog.I enjoyed reading the case studies of 50 creative bloggers who have attracted a large following of readers. I checked-out these blogs and most of them are still active. Each of these 50 bloggers also listed their favorite craft blogs so this book really offers a wealth of examples to investigate.I was a little disappointed that the author's blog has been closed down. I could find very little current information about her.I recommend this book to creative bloggers who are looking for inspiration from those who have found bliss and success in the blogosphere. I would love to see an updated edition in the future. I really enjoyed this book. It was fun to come across blogs I've known and love, but even better to discover new ones. The tips and helps didn't apply very much to me as I have been blogging for a while and learned them the hard way. It would have been terrific to have this when I was first starting out with my blog, though. Basically, if you have a blog or read blogs, you're gonna want to read this book.
