Momentum of the Muse

I just thought I would post up this link, seems fairly useful for anyone into blogging and SEO.

Happy Spring!

There is a contest being held over at Writing for Your Wealth and it looks like a lot of fun.

All you have to do is write a fable, no more than 300 words, on your blog by November 25th.

Clearer details are here.

Let me know if you decide to do it; I’d love to read your fable!

Welcome to post #3 in the Effective and Efficient Posting Series: Link Love.

Link love is a great way to tip readers onto helpful, informative, useful or simply hilarious information elsewhere. It is also a good posting strategy for when you’re lazy/efficient/effective/riding on someone else’s work/dedication/coat tails. So what if you don’t want to put in the leg work to achieve results that keep people coming back for more? Someone else does! Make them feel appreciated by pointing people their way.

Now, I’m going to send out some link love to Millionaire Mommy Next Door. I don’t know what my deal with Mommy blogs is; I’m in my 20’s and haven’t trusted children since my brief stint as a waitress at Red Robins, and a four year term coaching 5 to 11 year olds in ice hockey. Millionaire Mommy Next Door is more about Millionaire than Mommy, and lately I have been reading really insightful posts over there. The post I am referring to specifically today is How to Find Your Zingers. It’s a writing exercise which involves making lists of 100. I like making lists, and if you do too, I encourage you to make lists of 1000, or even 10 000.

Hmmm. If I’m so lazy, why and how can I make lists of 1000?

Well, maybe you should just listen to Jen Smith and try the exercise as she describes it.

I recently joined twitter. A little late coming, too. I mean, come on, Britney Spears is already on the damn thing.

Here are some posts to check out if you’re new, curious, or already tweeting away:

And Darren Rowse from problogger recently started a new blog.

TwiTip focuses on all that is twitter. It only has a few posts up so far, but they are all useful for beginners.

I had decided to try out twitter after reading countless articles about how necessary it is to incorporate social media into your online scope. Others were saying how they used it to leverage their blogs and gained a big readership. So far, I’m not too sure about that, but I have met a few characters and discovered a couple of hilarious blogs. The people on twitter are very helpful, and give advice, answers most of the questions that I tweet.

If you are on twitter or decide to join, please feel free to follow me!

What is everyone else’s experience with, or opinion of twitter?
