utah-book-bloggers-buttonBBAW Celebrate Books

I’m thrilled that Amy from My Friend Amy asked me to guest post not only about the friendships we create through blogging but also about the wonderful community that we have here in Utah.  Go check it out at the Book Blogger Appreciation Week blog.  I must admit that I have no shame in promoting the awesome book bloggers we have here.  There are more than 30 of us now.  Not kidding.  Go forth, read the post, comment, and visit them!

(P.S.  If  you are a Utah blogger – I would highly recommend promoting the post!)

Hey you! Yes. You! I've noticed that you've stopped by to visit a few times! But I don't know who you are. Why don't you take a moment and introduce yourself. Don't be scared. I try not to bite. I know you're a lurker but I'd love to hear your thoughts about what's been bringing you here. And if you haven't done so already, don't forget to never miss a post by subscribing to my feed or receiving updates by email. Thanks for visiting!

  2. I read the post and thought it was wonderful! I would love to do something like that in Minnesota but as of this date have not found very many.

    Thanks Natasha for sharing your heart about this group. What an amazing community of blogger friends you have in Utah!

  3. It was a great post. I’m with Sheila, I’d love to have that, but I don’t think there are that many of us here in central Nebraska.

  4. I’m telling you, it’s enough to make me want to move from Illinois to Utah, just so I could join in!

  5. There aren’t that many book-bloggers in Denmark – although there may be a bit more than what I am aware of, since it has been a while ago since I bothered with my Danish blog…..

  6. It’s wonderful that you’ve taken an on-line community and created events to celebrate each other’s work. I’d love to do that here in the Baltimore-Washington area. One of the reasons I started blogging was to highlight a literary community that seemed to exist under the radar.

  7. Dear Natasha: I am very disappointed about your review of my book “I Am A Star” originally published by Simon & Schuster. Please let us discuss this matter more. I have written other books. I would so much like to hear from you. Best regards, Inge Auerbacher PS There is even a film about the book. I am a retired chemist.

For some reason, Askimet Spam is giving me a lot of false positives. Even to those who have left me many comments before. So if you leave a comment, hit submit, and it seems to go the way of the wind, don't resubmit it. I'll catch it and publish it. Also, if you leave 2 or more links in your comment, it automatically goes into moderation. I'll catch that too.

I love and invite your comments. I thrive on them. But by posting a comment, you agree to not post off topic, defamatory, obscene, abusive, or use language that is not family friendly. I have the right to remove such comments and prevent you from leaving comments in the future. That said, comment away!
