Although 2010 is quickly fading away, Kat, Tiffany and I still have a few events up our sleeve that we’re excited to kick off before the end of the year.

Here is a quick preview of what you can expect on SITS during the holiday season…

November: Content is King

What: “Content is King” is a month long event focused on helping our SITStahs become better writers.  Each week we’ll be answering questions such as: Where can you find inspiration for blog posts when you haven’t got any?  How can you improve your About Me page?  What are ways to grab your readers’ attention at the beginning of a blog post?

When: At the end of each week, we will publish a blog post focused on a specific writing topic, as well as an activity for those interested.  Because the holiday season is upon us, we’re steering clear of daily assignments.  Instead, you’ll have a week to work on a short and easy activity with your tribe if you choose.

Why? Because at the core of most great blogs is ultimately great writing.  Plus, we could all stand to brush up on our skills so that we avoid sentences like these…

If danger isn’t violated, it can’t be done that it is pleasant.

The little boat gently drifted across the pond exactly the way a bowling ball wouldn’t.

December: 12 Days of SITSmas

What: Our Annual SITSmas event!  In honor of the holiday season, we will be bringing you 12 days of celebratory posts.  During this time, we’ll be featuring bloggers, hosting daily giveaways, and encouraging our SITStahs to link-up their holiday cards and gift guides.

When: Monday, November 29 to Tuesday, December 14.

Why? Because holiday cheer should extend even to blogland.

Happy Holidays!

    Looking forward to content is king (queen?). I might be doing the 8 nights of SITS-mukkah over here, but will happily share the holiday cheer 🙂

    Ooohh…SITSmas sounds as fun as Christmas!

    Looking forward to the weekly assignments in November as well!

    I keep forgetting to change the CommentLuv link before leaving my comment.

    Oh well, it gives me an opportunity to encourage and perhaps beg (hey, I’m not too proud) my SITStahs to stop by my blog to contribute a clever, witty, or silly caption for one of my vintage alphabet blocks. The contest ends on Friday, and my two favorite contributors will each get a 1-year subscription to Better Homes and Gardens!

    That’s better than a sharp stick in the eye, right?

    Thanks gals!

    I’m looking forward to participating in “Content is King” and am feeling in the holiday spirit already!

    I look forward to the weekly activities…I hope that I find the time to participate.
    And SITSmas sounds like lots of fun.

    I really wish Fran would quit using my sentences as bad writing examples. I mean, dang, they be soundin’ right when I be writin’ them. Kidding! I rock at writing, seriously. I pretty much never usually make mistakes hardly at all:). Can’t wait!

  19. Tracie says

    I love the idea for November. Although some part of me kind of liked that sentence about the pond and the bowling ball.

    November is always a busy time for me because we go back west to visit family…but I have some fabulous guest posters lined up and hopefully I can look back through the work y’all did while I was gone and learn some new things.

    Happy Hump Day, Lovelies! And I’m with Dani G…I can’t even think about the Christmas holidays yet!! First comes baby… =)

  32. Cheryl says

    Hi SITS Ladies! I know this isn’t really the place for this, but I’ve sent many e-mails to you about the Health and Wellness Box giveaway I won a couple months ago from SITS and I never received anything. I’ve only heard back from you once and I’d just like to know what’s going on with it. Thanks!! 🙂

  34. Doris says

    So much fun! And wow…those sample “poor writing sentences”…hurt my head! lol

    Thanks for all you do, ladies! You bring joy to my life!

  35. E says

    Looking forward to all the exciting stuff!! Love Christmas time, can’t believe it’s almost upon us! 🙂

    Happy Wednesday all!

    Looking forward to this challenge, I need to look at my content more and really think about what I’m trying to say.

    Yay – Christmas too – really excited that we can think about it already.

    Writing help is always welcome. I’m looking forward to that.
    Also want to give a shout out to VirtuaWoman.org, one of the sponsors at Philly’s bloggy bootcamp, who gave me a great opportunity to do a guest post on their site. I really appreciate their support! You can see it here:https://www.virtuawoman.org/Community/Columns/2010/11/01/The_Real_Secret_To_Staying_Young.aspx

    And check out their site… join… get some good advice from very informed women.
    Thanks!

    Looking forward to the Holiday posts! With Christmas approaching, I know I’ll be too busy to even think straight so a little prompting will go a long way.

    I’m so excited! Thank you for helping me to create a better blog and to hone my writing craft!
