I try to pretend I don’t care about the rest of the blog world (or blogosphere as many call it) but I am frankly pretty psyched that Clare nominated me to do the 7 links post that has been going around for a few weeks now. Thanks Clare!
The Rules
1. Blogger is nominated to take part
2. Blogger published his/her 7 links on his/her blog
3. Blogger nominates up to 5 more bloggers to take part
4. These bloggers publish their 7 links and nominate another 5 bloggers
5. And so on and so forth!
I will allow myself more than one post per category—I think that’s okay.
Most Beautiful
My save the dates. Serious love of stationery happening here.
Community. I feel like I did a good job writing this one, and it makes me tear up a bit.
Most Popular
Orchestra auditions for non-musicians. As much as I want this blog to be about ME, people in the music world loved this post.
My next most popular blog was the one about my engagement. A different sort of bling.
I was featured on Skinnyrunner’s Cat Lady blogs and had this post up: Cat Lady
Most Controversial
Well, the most popular post was also most controversial.
Wordy Wednesday had a few comments too regarding women’s rights and how women should act.
Most Helpful
I have written a variety of helpful posts, depending on what you are looking for.
Obviously (not to beat a dead horse) my post on orchestra auditions could be helpful if that’s what you are doing.
Patience is controlled frustration.
Post Whose Success Surprised You
I was a bit surprised by the scope of the success of the orchestra auditions post, but I knew people would like it.
Other than that…nothing really!
Post that didn’t receive enough success
I generally write assuming no one will read it, so the lack of success is absolutely no surprise. Nonetheless, you should read the following:
If it isn’t posted on the internet, has it really happened?
Post You’re Most Proud Of
Lewis and Clark. My first race!
Running is always a good idea. I’m not a mantra person, but I felt great writing this post.
I was thinking the categories don’t really fit my blog, what about, “funniest post,” “most narcissistic post,” “post with the most cat pictures,” or “most inspirational?” Maybe I should start my own 7 links post…
Let me tag some people then (don’t feel obligated, and sorry if you have already done it!):
