Ok so a few of us bloggers thought up this great idea for all of us not going to a blogging conference this month: Bliss at Home
We planned and we emailed and we planned some more.
HOURS…no DAYS were spent on this.
We started a facebook page.
People started “liking” us so faster than we could have ever imagined.
I posted a schedule.
We were all very excited.
Then? Life happened.
Due to some unforeseen “challenges”, Sluiter Nation can no longer be a part of what Bliss at Home is doing.
But…wait…I still LOVE BLOGGING!
So next week? I am devoting the entire week here in Sluiter Nation to my love of blogging…and I hope that you will join me.
My Top Ten Tuesdays will be the top 10 reasons I stick with blogging. (with a linky so you can participate.)
I have interviewed Cort about blogging…he is a new blogger…did you know that? (hopefully you’ll join the blogging conversation. we will have some challenges for you…and a linky to form a community around those challenges).
I thought I would tell you a bit about what makes good writing…because, you know, I TEACH writing…and I’ve been told I might not be too bad of a writer. (of course I will have a writing challenge for you…and a linky, of course!)
And the coup de grace? I have NINE giveaways for YOU on Friday next week! All four of my sponsors plus five more lovely ladies are contributing so YOU can possibly win some free lovlies!
So no, Sluiter Nation has nothing to do with Bliss at Home or Blissdom or anything thing conference-related.
But I hope a name doesn’t stop you from still coming by and peeking in at what I have to say.
I know I don’t really have anything to worry about because you guys? Love blogging as much as I do.
Edited to say: THIS JUST IN: Miranda from Not Super…Just Mom is teaming with me! She will be offering companion posts to each of mine (similar subject but different twist)…and a few other things too! Tune in Monday when we “introduce” ourselves to you…and give YOU a chance to introduce YOURSELF to lots of new bloggers!
If you have questions, I will do my best to answer them. Please leave them in the comments. Thank you, lovely readers.

Can’t wait. Especially the keeping at it part. I could use a little support in that department.
I can’t wait to have you here, friend. I wouldn’t be here without you 😉
I’m confused?
Are you quiting this blog, starting a new blog, or just don;t featuring the Bliss stuff on your blog?
the bliss at home stuff i was a part of…it was a whole online conference thing…i quit. just sticking here and talking about blogging 🙂
I’m too new at this to understand all of that. But I will stop by to see if I can learn by osmosis. Or something.
good, I like blogging. My blogging, my wife’s blogging, your blogging, your husband’s blogging, and just blogging in general.
blogging..
I LOVE BLOGGING. And you. Let’s do this.
I can’t wait. From one tiny blogger who will never be at any blogging conference ever, I faithfully read and will continue to read every day! I am so excited for next week!
I can’t wait! I’m excited to see your tips, read the interview, and honored to be part of the Giveaway!
What Miranda said. I’m copying her. Because I’m lazy and it’s true. 🙂
I’ll still be here to read!! And I need all the help I can get in the writing department!!
Looking forward to reading next week’s posts & for that giveaway!
I’m not sure how you do everything you do already!! And to do that on top of it all? You’re smart to bow out.
Oh, and I love, love blogging too!
I actually find this kind of exciting. The other thing seemed intimidating.
Nice! Looking forward to reading & joining you next week!
I’ll be here, I need all the help I can get… oh and with blogging too 🙂
It all sounds good to me. One, the other, both, whatever you are up to I am keeping my eye on you! Sounds a little stalkerish, tho, sorry. Will you be my Best Friend? 😉
Thhhhhhbbbbb!!!!!
To annoying people. That’s what I say.
Can’t you tell I’m one of the oldest of us?
What with my raspberries and all?
And also, you oughtta stop by my place today. For no particular reason. Just cause.
You guys are so good. How do you have the time to think up creative ideas like this. I’m impressed! 🙂
Boom.
I’m in.
Love you.
This is way better- I am excited for next week!
