Can I Guest Post on Your Blog?

29 Comments 12 March 2010

I’m going to be doing a handful of guest posts next month on some of my favorite blogs. Guest posting is a blast because you get to write for a different audience than you normally do, so it’s a chance to show a new group of people that there’s clearly something not right in your head.

As I was thinking about which blogs I’d like to guest post on, I had an idea. Why don’t I start a new blog with videos of my best arm farts? I slept on the idea, and realized the next day that it sucked.

Then I had another idea. Why don’t I guest post on YOUR blog? I slept on this idea, and it stuck.

So here’s the deal. Leave a comment to this post with 3 pieces of information.

1. Your blog address

2. A one sentence synopsis of what your blog is about

3. List 3 random words that you would like me to use in my guest post on your blog.

Entries will be open through the weekend, closing on Sunday night at 11:59pm EDT.

Next week I will pick either 3 or 4 winners (still figuring that out). What you win is a guest post by me on your blog. (Some would call this a prize, others a punishment.)

My guest post…

1. …will be between 500-1000 words

2. …will be about whatever you ask me to write about.

3. …will include the 3 random words from your entry.

4. …will be linked to from my blog, meaning you will get a lot of traffic. (and by “a lot” I mean “not really that much”).

5…will be posted on your blog sometime in April on a date we both agree to.

There you go. I don’t ask for too much from you guys, but if you’re up for it I’d love to work together on this one.

So…Can I guest post on your blog?

More About You

29 Comments 01 March 2010

I wanted to put a little twist on the “Get To Know You” post today just to mix things up.

I’ve listed 12 adjectives below that are often used to describe people. What I’m curious about is which of these are most important and least important to you.

Now, chances are you would like to be all 12 of these, so it’s going to take a moment or two for you to really think about which ones truly matter most. I want you to pick the 3 that matter the most to you and the 2 that matter the least.

If you’re having trouble picking, a helpful way to think about it is this: If you overheard two people talking about you and they were using these adjectives, which ones would give you the biggest and least biggest rush?

  • Reliable
  • Smart
  • Funny
  • Trustworthy
  • Creative
  • Kind
  • Inspiring
  • Driven
  • Generous
  • Fun
  • Honest
  • Encouraging

You don’t need to rank your answers, just give me the 3 you like the best and the 2 you like the least.

It should be interesting because I can guarantee that some of the ones you care about the least will turn up as one of someone else’s most important.

I’ll go first in the comments.

PS…It’s March 1st! Can you believe it’s March already!!! Remember, if you’re tired of people saying “Can you believe it’s already March?” to you, I’ve got some creative responses you can give back to them.

Even More About You

35 Comments 24 February 2010

I’ve been feeling sick this week (notice I didn’t go with “under the weather”), and it got me wondering how you guys handle not feeling well. You know what that means…

Time for 3 more random questions about you.

1. Which vacation sounds best to you: cabin in the mountains, house on the beach, apartment in Europe, or laying around on your couch?

2. Are your earlobes free or attached?

3. What are you like when you’re sick? Are you a “leave me alone, I feel awful” or a “take care of me, I feel awful”?

Let us get to know you a little better in the comments.

I’ll go first…
