A few couple of weeks ago I sat down in a local cafe with fellow Melbourne blogger – Skellie from Skelliewag.
I’d been reading Skellie’s work for a number of months and recently she wrote a couple of guest posts her at ProBlogger (How to Draw StumbleUpon Users Into Your Blog and Building a Blog With StumbleUpon). I’ve admired Skellie’s writing style since first coming across her blog and when I found out that we both lived in the same city I thought it’d be fun to catch up.
The result of our catch up was that we had a great conversation and…. (getting to the exciting news here) Skellie has agreed to start writing a regular (weekly-ish) column here at ProBlogger.
My reasons for getting Skellie involved are numerous:
- Firstly I think she writes great posts that will benefit us all
- Secondly I need a day off a week – while ProBlogger gives me a lot of energy, it is a 7 days a week job in and of itself (not to mention my other blogs my work with blog network).
- Thirdly, Skellie’s approach to blogging fits well with mine. While she’s her own person and has a unique style and voice – I think you’ll find that there’s also plenty of synergy between us. This is important to me as I don’t want ProBlogger to become too mixed up and ‘hotch potch’.
So there’s my reasons – I hope you enjoy this new voice at ProBlogger.
Skellie’s first post will be up in the next couple of hours and should follow on a weekly(ish) basis.
PS: do yourself a favor and also subscribe to Skelliewag’s RSS feed – you won’t be disappointed.
