Thank you, thank you, thank you, everyone who reads my little corner of the web, shares what works for them, and/or writes blogs of their own.
Since I know my blog wouldn't be as successful as it is without some linking from blogs who had already been blogging for awhile, like Marge and Anne (I still remember when Anne linked to my first Iron First post and I had 400 views in a day, on a weekend, when the day before I'd had like 30. Not that page counts actually matter or prove engagement, which is why you'll never find me talking about them. Except, like, right now, of course. Like you expect me to NOT contradict myself in two sentences. What are you, new here?), I figured there's no better way to celebrate my 4 year anniversary of my blog than with a few new/new-to-me/new-to-the-world blogs I've added to my RSS feed. Follow them all! Give them love! Three word phrases!
Anyway, here we go, in absolutely no order, except the one that has come about from linear organization of thought:
Mallory Tells Stories: Still with its New-Blog-Smell, Mallory's blog is in its fourth month. Her World Records program, which was also her very first post, inspired me to revisit and revamp my ol' Wild Records program and give it a fresh glean for the summer.
They Call Me Miss Carolyn: Carolyn's a prolific blogger, with 29 entries in 2015 so far (I have like 7. Maybe?) She's got a lot to chew on: life thoughts, reviews, tips, programs, and self reflections like this post.
Tales from the Nerdy: I used Nat's Minecraft Mania post to help inform my Minecraft party. Which I have yet to write about, sorry. Also, she ran a TMNT party which made me run one. Which I have yet to write about, sorry.
Literacious: Laura talks programs and storytimes; and she also loves a good, thoughtful, wondering or resources-sharing post-- and you can find all those under the tab called "Get EDUCATED", a title that I find especially delightful for its play with all caps: DO IT. GET EDUCATED, PEOPLE. At any rate, those posts are my favorites of hers, as well.
Let the Wild Rumpus Start: This is Holly's new blog, and I've met her in real life and you should probably be jealous of me. She's already blogged a wide range of programming, many with a STEM focus. This post on translating NaNoWriMo for the Children's area is getting me pumped for possibilities for an elementary literacy area. I bet we have a typewriter downstairs!
One for the Books: Laura's held three jobs since she started her blog about a year ago and she's blogged all her ups and downs. She blogs programming, tidbits, and more, and she does it all with a sharp wit. I love the unBlock she made for when she just feels stuck.
Just for you, Laura, since you don't like GIFs! (I pay attention sometimes) |
I'm always looking for new blogs to follow! Have a great blog I might not know about? Follow any new favorite blogs? Add them in the comments!
