Writers Just Seem to Get It

The Celery Tree Big Blog Tour continues! I am so impressed by the guest posts as well as the many comments on the participating blogs (complete schedule here) that clearly show this is an idea whose time has come. Writers just seem to "get it." And despite a few temporary glitches in the registering/ joining process, these don't seem to be souring the experience for anyone.

Today we travel to Writer's Ally, blog of author SA Larsen,



"Published freelance & short story writer; author of young adult, middle grade, & picture books. Lover of all paranormal & the not-so-average teen/tween. Hair-raising mom to 4 humanoids, lover of dance, sports, jamming to rock music in the car, the rain, anything chocolate...and a romantic wink from my favorite werewolf. My friends call me Sheri. (I post M/T/F)"

Sheri's guest today is Nicki Elson. Nicki, author of Three Daves, is a Celery Tree member who has been incredibly supportive from the first time she heard of the idea, well before it became a real place. And she agreed to guest post twice on the Celery Tree Blog Tour!

Her post today features the Forums. Nicki has some great ideas on how to make the Celerytree Forum a real gathering place for us writers. So please pop over to Writer's Ally and share your own ideas on how to make the Forum fun and informative for all of us!

I've been closing my comments here to draw the attention to the hosting blogs and the guest bloggers. But it makes me feel too lonely and isolated, so I'm opening them back up :). Sorry, I just can't help myself.

    1. Jess, Thanks, I need it! Shutting off comments gives one a very strange feeling! Plus I wanted to try out the new Blogger reply option which is very cool.

    1. E.J, Thank you! Having fun with the new reply option hehe, which I noticed for the first time on your blog. What a nice feature! It makes Blogger more like Wordpress.

  4. Karen, I'm not sure turning off the comment option was a good idea but thought I'd try it anyway. Probably won't try it again. Thanks so much for your support for Celery Tree!

  6. I'm glad the comments were opened up again. I didn't realize that you closed them down at first, so I thought that I broke my computer/Blogger again.

  10. I was so surprised to see my picture on your post a couple of posts down. I was going to comment, but I couldn't! It's been nice to be a part of the tour and see all the buzz around the blogosphere. I hope Celery Tree is a huge success!

  12. Celery Tree is exactly the online spot writers need. When this becomes the equivalent of the next Facebook (only better) I'll be able to say I know you!
