2013 Newbie Blogger Initiative Updated
2013 Newbie Blogger Initiative Updated
Turns out that Syp didnt organize this years NBI. This year, Syp turned things over to Contains Moderate Peril and Red Skies. Any information that you could possibly need or want about the 2013 NBI can be found at either of those links. I think it says a lot about Syp and the NBI that other people were ready and willing to take the reins and keep it going another year. Hopefully, the enthusiasm will continue and the Newbie Blogger Initiative will be renamed the Annual Newbie Blogger Initiative. Huh? Yeah? Sounds awesome, right???
The NBI is how this blog got started. I know. Not exactly a ringing endorsement. All things considered, the NBI launched a bunch of great gamer blogs last year. It was, for me at least, just the incentive needed to take the final leap into the gaming blogging community. I know that I had been considering starting a game blog for quite some time before I saw the NBI. Fear that I wouldnt be able to keep up with it, that I wouldnt have enough post ideas, and that I would bore the rest of the community kept me from taking the chance. The Newbie Blogger Initiative was a great support system for us new bloggers. It was the perfect safety net and I, for one, appreciated all the great comments and exposure that I got last year. I was tickled to see that it was back this year. I hope that Syp decides to make it an annual thing.
As for where Im at with this blog, its more laziness than anything that keeps me from posting. I have so many ideas and observations about gaming, specifically WoW, that I have bouncing around in my head and its just the chore of getting out my laptop and composing a post thats keeping me from putting my ideas out there. Yup. Laziness.
I started a WoW Bloggers group over on Google+ that Ive also been neglectful of. I searched and searched and didnt find anything specific to WoW bloggers so I figured Id start a group. I envisioned it as being a place for both support and exposure as well as communication. Somewhere to bounce ideas, etc. I still have hopes for it. And even though I havent generated much content, I still very closely monitor the group, so if youre feeling up to it, check it out and add your blog if youd like.
See you out in the community somewhere.
