New Features and a Call For Contributions!

Another one of those “admin” announcement style posts I’m afraid! I am unveiling a couple of new features you will see shortly. These will not be weekly posts but rather semi-regular features when there’s something to say. These new post-types are:

* Sparkle Shopping- Product reviews, amazing Etsy stores, anything to do with fabulous things to buy!

* Visual Sparkle - Inspirational images from around the Internet.

I also hope to include a lot more posts about people, since the interviews seem to be popular!

Now, I have a call for contributions! This will either take the form of a series of small items posted alongside the regular posts, or one or more full posts dedicated to the responses, depending on the selection of replies I receive. I am looking for your response to the heading “My Sparkle“. This can be about how you make your own life sparkle, how you interpret the word Sparkle in a lifestyle context, even a post about your amazing collection of sparkly objects, the choice is yours! I’m looking for a paragraph, possibly two, illustrations, photos, any format or interpretation you wish to create! The more varied the responses are the better it will be!

Please email your responses to sparkleandglitter[at]rocketmail.com and include your name, what you would like your name displayed as and your website address if you have one.

I hope this is going to turn out to be a really fun and inspiring project!

    Look at you being a busy bee! I LOVE Etsy – cannot wait to see what you have in store for us :D

    I was thinking of opening up an Etsy store, but I’m taking my time with it.

    Good luck with everything! I’ll definitely be checking up on them.

  • Ooou so fun! I know I owe you an Etsy Obsession too. I’m working on it I promise! I’m going to think of a “my sparkle” for you as well. . .

  • Interviews are always interesting… and your blog is by far one of the more unique… and a bit random…but I was just checking out wordpress, I been away for a while.. then i linked over to your blog.. and strangely was inspired to continue my blogging ways… hahah.. So thanks to your random rants and interviews and links, I’ll be resuming my ridiculous rants in the next couple of days.. ha, Keep up the good work buddy…

  • Hey, Synchronized Chaos would love to repost your call for submissions – we have many contributors and readers making their lives sparkle ;) Hope all is well, thanks for this blog, sending love!

    You may enjoy the books Jitterbug Perfume (can’t remember the author, popular in the seventies) and Loading Mercury with a Pitchfork (ditto) as well as Stephanie Chandler’s The Author’s Guide to Building an Online Platform.

  • @ Cristina – That would be great! The more contributions the better, I’d love it if you reposted this!

    I will definitely check out those books too! :)
