some of you may know that i recently had the absolute delight in taking part of holly becker’s  blogging your way e-course.  holly is the founder and editor of decor8 and in this e-class lends to us her advice, tips, and expertise in blogging and all of the wonderful things that accompany it.  holly does such a wonderful job at making each of us feel right at home.  she creates a comfortable and cozy place for us to learn, ask questions and get to know one another.  from overcoming writer’s block to tech help, the material we covered went above and beyond what i ever expected.

to add to all that holly shared with us, we also had weekly contributor and amazing photographer leslie shewring share her expertise.  you might remember her from her beautiful blog, a creative mint?  leslie shared with us everything from camera settings to adding text and editing images as we quickly filled out notebooks with inspirations, ideas and know-how.

all in all, i highly recommend holly becker’s e-course, blogging your way, and you’ll be happy to know that she plans to teach it again this fall.  it has been some of the most inspiring and educational 7 weeks i’ve had to date and the things we learned will go on being referenced for years and years to come.  if you have a blog or aspire to write one, i hope you will make it a point to experience this amazing class!
