The Blogging Adventure- An eBook Written Just for Crafters!

The Blogging Adventure: Tips & Prompts for Crafters by a Crafter is here!

This book was written by a crafter for crafters! It was designed and based off of my successful e-course, the Monthly Blogging Workshop. What began as a month-long virtual workshop has now been re-designed as an e-book to help you improve your blogging, give you blog prompts, topics, and ideas, help you to gain blog readers, and to help you expand your social network.

Some of the highlights of this book include:

Tomorrow at 5pm, the first ever Urban Folk Art Show in Indiana kicks off, and the 30 or so vendors who will be in attendance are really hoping it kicks off with a bang and not a whimper.
