I Did It Again!

I used to feel sorry for people who don't scuba dive. There is a spectacular world down there. A world of brilliant colors and unimaginable beauty. And there are people missing it!

I kind of feel that way now about non-bloggers. Okay, not quite. But those who don't blog are definitely missing out. They are missing out on a wonderful world of supportive writers. A fabulous community that shares information and is an incredible source of inspiration.

So, I am always happy when I convince a friend to start blogging.

Please welcome Tiffany to the blogosphere! She is an amazingly talented rhymer. I expect her to have her first picture book contract soon!

Linda said...

Tiffany, as one of Corey's other recent converts, let me be among the first to say welcome!

Little Ms J said...

You're starting a movement!

I love diving too! I get to go diving in Hawaii in September. Looking forward to it!

Kasie West said...

I so want to learn to scuba. I've been snorkeling a few times and love it. You can count yourself for having a convert in the scuba diving department as well, because you just convinced me. :)

Welcome Tiffany and Corey, you are so right, this community rocks.

Tana said...

I'll go welcome her, thanks for the intro!

K said...

She has a great first post and I'm looking forward to reading more! It's exciting seeing a new blog starting up! Makes me want to start a second one of my own! Oh wait I am :) I hope you'll guest post on the new blog once I launch it!!

Hi Corey!

Sorry...I had about 11 seconds to comment earlier as I ran in and then back out of the house. I wanted to revisit, and post a proper thank you now! Thanks so much for your blog link/promo/intro!!

Now the pressure is ON to get this boat out to sea! Oh boy. Too many exclamation points again. (!!) Hmmm...that gives me an idea....

Love you!
T

Tiffany IS a great rhymer! I really enjoyed her poetry on her website.

Corey, you are doing a great job of expanding the children's writer's blogging community!

Yay for new bloggers. I've been trying to convince my sister she needs a blog. Alas, she has yet to really get started. I'll have to check out your friends link. Thanks for sharing!

Hardygirl said...

Okay. I'm heading over right NOW.

MG Higgins said...

Welcome, Tiffany! I'm going to check out your site.

Cory--
You recruited me!
You got me blogging after some ridiculous comment I made on Christy's blog. Thanks.

Maybe we'll go scuba diving sometime.|:~)

Yay ... I'll go check out her blog! My hubby LOVES scuba-diving ... I can't even stand the thought of snorkeling ... something about 'breathing' underwater that just doesn't seem right to me! :-)

Another one bites the dust...

Love it!

Welcome, Tiffany!!

Ame Dyckman said...

Hooray, Tiffany! (And, I never went scuba-ing, but I snorkled in Hawaii once. It was fun, but I totally burned my butt.)

Lynn said...

I just posted a review of Hop, Plop on my site. I really thought I had posted it months ago! Will check out the new blog now... always looking to expand my already ridiculously overpacked google reader.
