A blogging conference....have you ever gone to one?
Admittedly, and sadly, I have not. I had a hard enough time over the weekend to attend a cycle class at a local studio for "Portland Bloggers". Even though I attend classes at this studio regularly, I was apprehensive to label myself publicly as a 'blogger'......to meet others who might be younger than me, cooler than me, better writers than me.....yadda, yadda, yadda. I didn't let my fear get the best of me however, and in the end, I had a great time, met some wonderful local, half my age energetic bloggers. After the ride, we gathered at a coffee shop across the street to chat some more and swap information. It was great to make these connections with, ultimately, like-minded women.
This year, BlogHer is holding it's conference in San Jose, California - on the west coast (yea!) from July 24-July 26. BlogHer '14 is an opportunity to learn more about blogging from great speakers like Kerry Washington and Jenny Lawson {The Bloggess}. And I think the best thing about attending a blogging conference is making connections - like I did this weekend in a cycling studio! Don't we all learn so much for one another???
I am really thinking of attending BlogHer this year....how about you? Don't you feel left out when you see all the photos of bloggers having fun, TOGETHER at a blogging conference on social media? Well that could be us! You can go HERE to register for BlogHer '14.
