I have decided to resurrect my Blog after almost a year of non activity. I would love some advice on making it more engaging and keeping on top of it. If any one wants to have a look at it the link is www.artofemaan.com/apps/blog/ . Who knows you might even want to subscribe to it.
I never been great at keeping up with regular posts but now I think I may have found one way to help create some new posts. I was contacted the other day by a fellow designer that creates Celtic jewellery. He has asked me to write a review of his store and some his products on my blog. In return he will do the same for me.
This got me thinking this would be a great idea for us on the forum. Is any one interested in doing this?

Ian, I love this idea. My blog is in mothballs as well. As a matter of fact, I hate to admit I have never even published the first post! I love to write, but I needed something to write about besides me, me, me. This might be a great way to kick start it. We did something like this on a small scale during the Spa Day Challenge last year. Writing about other artisans and telling their stories would be one great way to do our bit toward building up the handmade community.

I am interested, but I'll have to get back to you in a couple of weeks. Things are crazy in my world right now.
There has also been some discussion (which may have been inspired by your idea) among the moderators about doing a sort of blog exchange like this where people would "interview" different members of the forum and other artists as well and then post the stories along with a sampling of the artist's work, link to their shop, etc... I think we may do it as a forum project later in the spring. It might be a good opportunity to invite other people outside the forum to join in.
