8. Wisdom
Regardless of our experience with writing a
blog, we each have wisdom to bring to the
conversation about blogging. How can we
mentor others in this group?
For Example:
Laura - Writing Tips
Others –
9. Understanding
It takes time and
understanding of
blogging before "I"
can do it well.
10. Support
Our ongoing conversations with one another will
inspirit and support each other in this wonderful
task of sharing insights.
11. Thick Skin
While working in the "publishing industry" I learned
that it is important to have a "thick skin".
13. Community
We are creating a
"Blogging"
Community with a
goal of creating
engaging blogs writin
by individuals who
have a passion for the
topic that they have
chosen.
14. Two Formats
Our blogging conversations will happen in two
formats:
Webinar format - Brief overview of the content +
time to raise questions and engage in a short
conversation
Online format - Continue the conversation we
began in a "private" online blogging format
