Connecting with Local Mommy Bloggers

This morning, I had the opportunity to attend the Columbus Metropolitan Library Summer Reading Club kick-off event. The library welcomed local Columbus Mommy Bloggers for a special talk given by the library’s director. It was a great experience, and my first time every connecting face-to-face with other mommy bloggers!

We were all able to exchange blog information, websites, twitter urls, and contact information. I was the newest mommy blogger out of all of the attendees, although some of the other moms had been blogging for years! I also learned that there are other local events for mommy bloggers which I may be interested in.

The mommy bloggers I met:

Summer
@EverythingMoms and http://everythingmoms.blogspot.com

Amy
@amyturnsharp or @littlealouette and http://www.alittlealoutte.com

Kristin
@cbusmom and http://www.cbusmom.com

Christina
@mommystory and http://amommystory.blogspot.com

Alvin
@wyliemac and http://the270.com

Dawn
@thiswomanswork and http://www.thiswomanswork.com

Sometimes, being the New Breed Mamas that we are, we don’t always have the chance to meet and talk to our internet and twitter friends face to face. However, I encourage anyone who has the opportunity, to venture out and meet other local mommy bloggers face to face. Building local connections is a great way to build up readership and to stay ‘in-the-know’ about what’s going on for mothers in your neck of the woods!
