Last month I’ve recorded what I consider being my best blogging achievement: I’ve persuaded my best friend to start a blog. It took me about 3-4 months until my arguments were enough to awaken her wish to have her own blog. Taking into consideration her extreme skepticism regarding lots of things, and her decision to do nothing for the rest of her life, the fact that she’s now writing 2-3 posts per day is unbelievable.
This led me to the idea of hosting this group writing project:
My Best Blogging Achievement
How to participate:
- Write an article about what you consider to be your best achievement in blogging, or related to blogging
- Submit it to the group project via this submission form and include your name (or nick name), the link to your post and the post title, no later than December 4th (your timezone)
- After the submissions stage ends, go through all submissions (I’ll publish the list on December 5th), choose your top three favorites (not ranked) and let me know about your choice, no later than December 15th (your timezone).
I will announce the winners within 1-2 days after that, and the prizes will be:
1st prize: $100
2nd prize: $50
3rd prize: $25
All prizes are payable via PayPal or Moneybookers.
Please send only new articles. Articles written before November 24th 2007 will not be taken into consideration.
Later edit: Thanks to Pelf, who was kind to raise this issue, I want to specify that only one article per blogger (not per blog) will be admitted in the project.
I’m looking forward to read about your biggest blogging achivements,
Simonne
Now everyone has a laptop as well as a pda and the home theater systems story is an old one too. The next arena they plan to take by storm is that of photography. Therefore the next big thing is digital cameras.

this is a nice project Simonne! It’s definitely a cloaked motivation for blogging and being positive
would love to join in!
Thanks, Pearl. I’m looking forward for your entry
Interesting idea Simonne. This writing project might be just the thing to get me to write the ‘consumer vs producer’ article I’ve been thinking about. It’ll be an interesting challenge tying my site’s topic and blogging achievements together.
Hey Aaron, I’m eager to read your article.
This sounds great, but Simonne, can a blogger submit more than one article? You didn’t mention this, so I thought perhaps it would be good to put it down (not that I would like to submit more than one article though), LOL.
Ha, ha! Thank you Pelf, I didn’t think of that. No, it will be one article per blogger, I’ll update the rules immediately.
No problem! Looking forward to read all the articles!
This is an interesting project, Simonne. I already know my answer to that question, but I need time to put the post together. December 4… huh, hopefully, I’ll be able to post before that, will do my best. This is a very busy week for me - we’re moving from one place to another - boxes everywhere… huh…
Hey Vivien, if you think you need some more time, I can push a little bit the deadline.
No problem!
Thanks, for the kind offer, Simonne. But I did manage to write the post for your project. I timestamped it to go live tomorrow evening
OK, Vivien, thank you. I’m looking forward to read it.
Simonne,
Very interesting project/competition! It will be interesting to read what others consider their greatest accomplishment.
I’ll have to give this one some very serious thought. I’m definitely interested in participating.
Great way to get people writing and socializing!
Thank you JMorris. I can’t wait to read your post. I think we will end up with a very motivating collection of articles.
Hey Simonne, Thank you for having this writing project! I’ve submitted my post and look forward to reading what others have to say.

Whew. I just finished and from the looks of it with just a few minutes to spare. My power has been flickering on and off for a day and a half now and the fast winds still haven’t hit!
I may have to read the other entries much later tonight. Shoot, power went out again (causes the dsl to drop)…
Thank you Aaron, I’m glad to have you in this group and I appreciate you found the time to participate.
