Storyteller's Journey

      The Bliss of Blogging

When I started blogging - one year ago today - it was as a response to learning that I needed to start building my writer's platform. In fact, that is the same reason I joined Twitter and Facebook.
Being somewhat of a reclusive bookworm, I found a freedom on these social networks to come out of my shell. In some ways, this is irrational when you to stop to think about how many people cruise the Internet daily and are able to access our constant comments! Still, laboring behind my laptop , in isolation, allowed me to slowly, but surely develop an online presence - one I am always tweaking.
What I did not expect was how much I would enjoy networking with fellow writers - especially those writers who became my blogging buddies. Their friendship made blogging a blissful experience.
So...(drum roll, please!)...for that reason I am inviting all of you to my First Blog Birthday Party! It will be held tomorrow, Saturday, February 4th right here at Writ of Whimsy. There will be awards, gifts, balloons, and even a cyber-cake to celebrate this momentous occasion!
In addition to all the fun and fanfare, you will be treated to a bit of "tongue in cheek" with my featured friends! As silly as this all may sound, it really is my way of thanking all of you who made me feel welcome here in Blogosphere. Hope to see all of you party animals here tomorrow! ^_^
