Had a conversation with @JoannaYoung today in Twitter... went more or less like this:
Me: Ur experiment's pushed me to add 'subscribe by email' to [this blog] Not that there's owt new to read :)
Joanna: Maybe the new subscription box will tempt you to blog something...?!
Me: I have a lot of explaining to do - and lots of great stuff to share! But no idea where to start!
Joanna: You could start with just that - where do you start when you've so much to share?
Me: You're so wise! This'll sound like procrastination :) but I promise to post something by the end of the day!
Joanna: I'm not wise Claire, but I have learned that writing what you know and where you're at is best way to go :-)
Well, technically, the end of the day happened over an hour ago. However, since I'm still up, fuzzy logic says the day's still going... ergo, I made it. So "where do you start when you've so much to share?"
You start with the explaining... which I'll do properly next week, after a well earned weekend off. For now, suffice it to say, there's major change afoot for me. As for the sharing, I'm going to post 3 really useful social media marketing resources which I've come across in just the last 24 hours via Twitter - pure Twitter Gold.
