Recycling (Blogging Style)

August 24th, 2007 · 11 Comments

Yvonne at Grow Your Writing Business has tagged me for the recycling meme. This is a meme that started at William Tully’s Logical emotions blog.

Since it’s a sleepy Friday morning (well, actually it is Thursday night), today seems like the perfect day for it. (I’ll cross my fingers and hope my links work since I’m posting in advance.)

I am supposed to gather together ten posts that give a picture of WritingThoughts. It took me a while to pick out the one that I feel are most representative of the site, but here is what I’ve come up with:

I hope you’ve enjoyed my recycled entries. The next step is the fun one. I get to pick five bloggers to pass the meme on to. Before I do that I’d better share the rules:

  1. Limit your list to 10 posts or less.
  2. Take your time.
  3. Link to where this meme first started.
  4. Link to this post.
  5. Tag five folks.

I’m going to tag five recent commentators. The lucky taggees are:

    Great roundup of some excellent posts, Laura. Though I had read them all before, I enjoyed a second visit.

    Thanks Lillie! I was thinking this meme might also be helpful to newer readers who missed some of the older posts.

    He he…

    Happy Friday! (Lazy or not)

    Great entry, and, I would like to inform you that, I transformed your request for feedback into a blog entry, which… as expected, you will find on my blog.

    For the record: you two have done a great job at conducting the writing project. I didn’t give any specifics in my entry because I gave “general advice.”

    Love,

    Mig

    Thanks for tagging me. I came her via Principled Discovery. Your posts there have been so timely (and helpful) for me. I have just recently decided to get back into freelance writing after putting it aside for a couple of years while I found my homeschooling groove.

    I am glad that you did this meme because it gives me a chance to read all of those old posts.

    And I’m glad you tagged me because now I have a fun blogging project to work on this weekend!

    Hi Mig!
    Inspiring other blog entries is just a sign that I’m on target with my audience. I’m glad you got something out of it.

    Hi Charity!
    I have a policy of tagging recent commentators and that was you! I’m glad that you are getting something helpful from my blog. I look forward to reading your entries.

    Hi Laura, that’s a good policy on tagging. I often wonder how to choose people! And I’m doubly lucky on this occasion as I happened to drop by the other night…

    Will do recycling soon – it’s good practice anyway, but useful to have the reminder 🙂

    Hi Joanna!

    I’m thinking of looking for more ways to reward commentators.

    “I’m thinking of looking for more ways to reward commentators.”

    Money is always nice. 🙂

    Laura,
    I’ve just posted a list of my favorite writing blogs, and you’re on it.

  • 10 Laura // Aug 25, 2007 at

    Hi Charity–Sadly, I can’t afford to pay commentators right now.
    Hi Yvonne–I’m glad that you like the list of reasons.
    Hi Lillie, I’m glad that I’m one of your favorites.
