Exploring Blogs and Entering Competitions


I have just entered a couple of my illustrations into the AOI Images competition. It is the first time I have submitted anything to AOi and the competition is very high. Wish me luck!

I have been reading many creative blogs over the last couple of weeks and I am so impressed with all that I have seen. Makes my blog look very boring. I am in the process of trying to find a lead for my camera so I can download some images and make my blog more visually interesting.

I have just found a blog that has some beautiful illustrations:

Lauren has just had her first book published. I am crossing my fingers that by next year I will be able to post my success story.

Everyone who is blogging seems to have big long lists of links and have joined groups and been tagged to do lists. If anyone reads this it would be great to know how. I'm sure I'll find out very soon.

Hi there. Just stumbled across your blog from somewhere else. Fantastic pictures.It is hard starting off. I also have just entered the blogging world not really knowing what I will do with it. I do know one thing you will be most excited getting your first comment.re the tagging and stuff. I think that comes with knowing alot of other bloggers out there. If you read ones that have been around along time they have many followers/friends and they seem to tag one another.The links stuff. Are you talking about being able to link from your post re the site you have suggested to look at in this post. If it is there is a little blurb on it in blogger somewhere. If you can't find it let me know and I will give more detailed instructions. Sorry for the rambling but I will continue to look at your blog and see what is happening.
cheers
