An offer....to those who enjoy sharing their stories

**nctomatoman** · April 20, 2011

Some of you may be following my blog -

http://nctomatoman.weebly.com/nctoma...rden-blog.html

Though I try to make it a daily blog, it is impossible to find time to do so - or to come up with something interesting each day...but I am actually doing a better job than I expected keeping up with it.

Here is the offer - if anyone would like to be a "blogger of the day" and share some experience, story, something - email me with an entry and a title and I will work it in....Carolyn, this also means YOU! Another way to get your voice out there...

In this season, I am getting between 250-600 viewers/day, to give you an idea of how widely (or unwidely!) read it is...

Just something that came to mind. Of course, your name and location would be good to share as well. You can look at my entries to see what sorts of things I tend to feature.

Go for it! I am thinking I may get swamped, or this could fizzle out - so how soon whatever you propose gets in there would depend on level of interest to this offer, as well as what's going on that I have to communicate about the seedling or dwarf stuff.

my email is nctomatoman@gmail.com

One more thing - my blog is not meant to compete with any other tomato discussion boards - because it is really one way communication - telling stories, not engaging in discussions. That's what Tomatoville is for!!

Carolyn, this also means YOU!

*****

I hear you!!!!

I just posted and it didn't come up even after I refreshed the site so lets see how this one goes.

I'd be glad to submit some events , happenings, stories, etc., but let me think them through to be sure I send you some thing to post on your blog that's acceptable for public viewing and probably related to tomatoes no doubt.

Just sent you an email...let me know what you think. ;-)

Thanks Barb - got it! I am in Panera in Gastonia NC - Sue is in a fabric cloth called Mary Jo that is legendary...so I am catching up on email etc for an hour or so. (I am speaking to the Gaston County master gardeners tomorrow - we barter a night at a nice B&B with heirloom tomato plants as exchange!). I will take a look Barb once I get settled.

This should be fun! Hoping lots of people send stuff to me so I can sprinkle it in amongst my typical stream of consciousness rambling...

I've made a change that should help unclutter things - there is now a special, separate guest blog page - so that way, you can talk about what you want, and I can have my own blog separate - running in parallel.

Barb, yours is now here -
